Looking for a Korean name that fits Megan? Here are three real Korean names that echo its sound or spirit, each with Hanja (the Chinese characters behind Korean names), what they mean, and how to say them.
Beautiful grace
The 'ga' and 'eun' sounds gently echo the 'gan' in Megan, so the name feels like a natural cousin of your own. It is a soft, familiar feminine name in Korea, and its meaning of beautiful grace is a lovely thing to carry.
Beautiful radiance
Mi-so begins with the 'Me' sound of Megan. In Korean, the word 미소 also means 'smile', so the name carries a pleasant double meaning. It is warm and easy to say, and it suits someone who brightens a room.
An auspicious river
Seo-ha is a surprise pick. It is modern and airy, and it suggests good fortune flowing steadily along like a river. It is a graceful, familiar name in Korea and easy for international friends to pronounce.
These are sample picks for the name Megan. For your own, tell us the feeling you want and your birth year. You get three names explained in full and a calligraphy image you can download, in a few minutes. Add a Saju (Korean four pillars) reading if you like.

가은 (Ga-eun) is a strong choice: Beautiful grace. 미소 (Mi-so) and 서하 (Seo-ha) are good alternatives.
