Seung-won

Seung-won is a Korean given name, typically used for males. It is written in Hangul as 승원 and can be represented in Hanja (Chinese characters used in Korean) in various combinations, each imparting a slightly different meaning. Due to the nature of Hanja, the specific characters used will determine the exact connotation of the name.

Common Hanja combinations and their associated meanings for Seung (승) include:

• 承 (seung): inheriting, succeeding, receiving
• 昇 (seung): ascending, rising, promoting

Common Hanja combinations and their associated meanings for Won (원) include:

• 源 (won): source, origin, beginning
• 遠 (won): distant, far away
• 元 (won): first, beginning, principal

Therefore, depending on the specific Hanja chosen by the parents, Seung-won could mean something like "inheriting a source," "rising above the origin," or "succeeding with what's fundamental." The precise nuance is entirely dependent on the Hanja characters used.

As with many Korean names, the meaning and significance are carefully considered by parents when naming their child. The choice of Hanja is often influenced by family tradition, desired character traits, or hopes for the child's future.
