Origin and meaning of Xinyi
Xinyi is a much-loved modern Chinese girl's name, transcribed in pinyin. Xin can mean 'joy, radiant happiness' (欣) or 'heart' (心) and yi (怡) 'serenity, cheerful harmony': together they evoke a joyful, peaceful spirit. For years it has ranked among the most chosen girls' names in mainland China, prized for its sweet sound and bright meaning, while staying little known in the Western world.
