Top pick

A gifted person with a wide, open sky

say “jee-ahn”

Wise and peaceful

지 智 · wisdom
안 安 · peace, calm

Ji-an begins with a soft "j" sound like the start of Jamie. It is a gentle, modern name that Koreans use for all kinds of people. It suggests someone who is thoughtful and easy to be around.

해인
Hae-in
say “heh-in”

Kindness as vast as the sea

해 海 · sea, ocean
인 仁 · kindness, benevolence

How Korean names work

Most Korean names have a one-syllable family name and a two-syllable given name, like 재민. Each syllable is usually tied to a Hanja character, so two names that sound the same can mean different things. That is why a good Korean name comes with its characters, not just its sound.
