About this app

K-NAME creates a Korean name just for you — written in Hangul, with Hanja (Chinese characters) chosen for their meaning, and explained in your own language.

Answer a few simple questions — who the name is for, the feeling you like and what you want it to carry — and K-NAME suggests Korean names that fit you. Every name comes with its meaning, the story of each character, why it suits you and how to say it.

■ QUICK NAME — FREE
• A few taps — no birth date, email or account
• Pick the feeling you love: calm, bright, strong, elegant, warm or modern
• Choose what your name should carry: wisdom, kindness, courage, joy, peace, hope, beauty or achievement
• If you like, echo the sound of your own name
• Choose a Korean family name (Kim, Lee, Park and 9 more), let us pick one, or go with a first name only
• Not quite right? Ask for more names

■ TRADITIONAL NAMING — BY A KOREAN NAMING OFFICE (in-app purchase)
Jeongwon Naming Office in Busan, Korea has named and renamed more than 27,000 people since 2010. With Traditional Naming, the office's naming engine names you the way Korean families have done for generations:
• Your birth date and time (solar or lunar calendar — an unknown time is fine) decide which elements the name's characters should carry
• Character elements, sound harmony with the family name and the four traditional stroke-count combinations are all checked
• A naming certificate from Jeongwon Naming Office — share it as an image or save it as a PDF
• One purchase = one Traditional Naming session

■ EVERY NAME INCLUDES
• Hangul, romanization and Hanja
• Meaning, name analysis and why it fits you
• A pronunciation guide in your language — and listen to it in Korean
• The meaning and element of each character
• A name card that's ready to share
• My Names — keep your favorites on your device

■ MADE WITH CARE
• Only Hanja approved by Korea's Supreme Court for personal names
• In English, Korean, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified) and Spanish
• No account needed. Saved names stay on your device.
• Name descriptions are written with the help of AI (Anthropic's Claude). The AI never receives your birth date, email or device ID.
• K-NAME creates names. It does not offer fortune telling or predictions.
