Origin and meaning of Ji-woo
Ji-woo is a Korean unisex name formed from Sino-Korean syllables such as 智 (ji, 'wisdom, intellect') and 宇 (woo, 'universe, cosmic space'), suggesting wisdom as vast as the cosmos. Its exact meaning shifts with the hanja parents choose. It has been one of South Korea's most popular names in recent decades, for both girls and boys, yet stays rare elsewhere.
