Seung-hee

Seung-hee (승희) is a Korean given name, typically feminine. Like many Korean names, it is composed of two Sino-Korean roots, each carrying its own meaning. The combination of these roots determines the overall meaning and connotation of the name. Common root components and their associated meanings include:

• Seung (승): 勝 (to win, victory), 承 (to inherit, receive), 昇 (to rise, ascend)
• Hee (희): 喜 (joy, happiness), 姬 (beautiful woman, concubine, performer - though less common in modern names), 熙 (bright, luminous, glorious)

Therefore, a name like Seung-hee could be interpreted as combinations such as "Winning Joy," "Inheriting Brightness," or "Ascending Happiness," among other possibilities. The precise meaning depends entirely on the hanja (Chinese characters) chosen to write the name. As with most Korean names, the meaning is carefully considered by parents when choosing a name for their child.
