Korean Name Maker: Saju Names

Curious what your Korean name could be? Korean Name Maker suggests Korean names chosen with hanja meanings, natural sound and the traditional Saju (Four Pillars) approach to naming.

■ How it works

1. Enter your original name (optional), birth date, birth time and gender.
2. Choose a Korean family name such as Kim, Lee or Park.
3. Watch a short ad and receive three Korean name suggestions.

■ What you get

• Each name in Hangul, with a romanized pronunciation guide
• The hanja (Chinese characters used in Korean names) and what each one means
• Why the name was suggested, in English
• Five-element (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water) charts based on traditional Saju interpretation
• Suggestions inspired by the sound of your original name, where possible

■ Learn about Korean names

A built-in guide explains how Korean names are structured, why hanja carry meaning, what Saju is, and how the five elements are used in naming. No sign-in is needed to read it.

■ Free with ads, optional Naming Pass

Name suggestions are free with a short rewarded ad for each request, up to 10 requests a day. An optional Naming Pass unlocks the full Saju reading, name fortune and extra naming options without ads.

■ Good to know

• Romanized spellings are pronunciation aids, not official or passport spellings.
• Birth times are interpreted in Korean Standard Time; local time zones outside Korea are not converted automatically.
• Saju and traditional name interpretation are cultural practices, not scientific predictions. A name does not guarantee any outcome.
• A suggested name is for personal and cultural use and does not change your legal name.
