Chinese girl names are the given names used to identify girls in Chinese-speaking communities. They commonly use one or two Chinese characters chosen for sound, meaning, or cultural significance. Names range from traditional characters with historic meanings to modern combinations inspired by nature, virtues, or good wishes. Parents, writers, and researchers use these names to express values, family hopes, and aesthetic qualities.

Interesting and little-known facts about Chinese girl names:
– This collection lists 1,063 names that include widely used one- and two-character given names across China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and overseas communities.
– Most given names use one or two characters; three-character given names are uncommon today.
– About 3,500 Chinese characters form the core daily vocabulary; parents usually choose name characters from this practical pool.
– Characters like 娟 (juān, graceful), 婷 (tíng, graceful), and 玉 (yù, jade) have historically been common in female names, though trends shift each generation.
– Because Mandarin is tonal, tone and syllable shape influence meaning and the perceived sound of a name.

The alphabetical index is organized by the Hanyu Pinyin initial of the given name, not the surname.
Each letter’s list shows columns for Name, Pronunciation, and Meaning. Pronunciation uses Hanyu Pinyin with tone marks and shows the Chinese characters in parentheses; additional columns note name length, frequency, and audio or usage notes.
