Korean Name Generator

I created a (superior) Korean name generator for the writers out there.

I defeated my long, long problem of not being able to call anything from a database. (clap, damn you. lol)

http://www.polyglit.com/koreannamegenerator/ It generates a complete given name, surname, clan, and gives you information about them if there is any info.

Unfortunately it’s 4100 clans and I haven’t gotten to given names yet. (I’m on 172nd clan)

And translating from Korean to English is difficult since often the bon’gwan info has hanja which don’t translate well (So then I have to take rough stabs).

The upside is that you get more info than your average Korean name generator.

I used it a few times when I got stuck for minor character names.

Yeah... and once the 4100 clans are in order I’ll change the Family Name database over to the new database and then it’ll be even better.

It’ll have dates, etc. And then figure out how to do given names. (or just use the erumy (not my website, but I hijacked the url with some code) links at the bottom for now). Edit: There are 4100 clans. The records online from the SOUTH Korean government only date up to the year 2000--there is no way I can reach the 4100 clans. Some of the clans are brand spanking new. Again, research instead of blind take it. Depending on your needs, you might want a newer clan or an older clan. Be sure to check the dates. BTW, don’t do the a-hole thing of saying that a clan started in 2000 is “not really Korean.” They are Korean and might have also married Koreans, you don’t know.

I need to make a Korean name for my oc for a fic (okay, maybe not NEED but I want to because it’s fun) but I have ZERO idea how names work in Korea and I don’t want to have a totally weird name that is improper and stupid

The name will probably only be used once because I’m planning to make a nickname for the character that they’ll prefer to go by but anywayss

Sooo….. I have an idea (that I totally didn’t just get from google translate haha.. hah..) uhhhh

Jung Yohaji (Anheum if it’s appropriate) (중요하지 않음 is what showed up in google translate as well, it’d be nice it know if this is right too)

According to Google and DeepL translate, it means unimportant or not important

Is there a better name for something around the same meaning? This was honestly the best I could come up with using free translators (and Idk if I can even use just the actual words for a name, because you definitely can’t in English)

Btw, it’s a girl character, in case that helps

Help a hyper fixated girly out 🙏🙏

do I have a Korean speaking follower.. is the name 새언 ok like is it a real name? or like is it a name that could exist? I know 새온 exist but I feel like 새언 sounds better.. (it's for an oc)

I changed my name.

My original Korean name is Yi(李) Min(珉) kyung(庚). It means a jade stone in the seventh celestial light from Yi family.

( the 7th celestial..is rooted from the asian astrology called SAJU.)

But now it changed to like this:

Yi(移) Min(民) kyung(鯨)

means an immigrated whale!

This new name reminds me of the vast ocean and a free big fish swimming in there.

Haha I love my new name!

Not related to much of anything, but I love seeing YD's posts over on twitter. She's being so positive, and seeing all that excitement is downright adorable

Like when she saw a clip of Phil running over to pick her up after she got downed on her first day

That's so freaking cute

Not to mention all the fanart she's been retweeting, even asking at one point if retweeting or quote-retweeting was better because she wanted to start sharing the fanart that people were making

And of course this post she made today after doing some offscreen digging

And some iconic responses as a bonus

I also wanna say that I really liked Jyungreok's (Let me know if I spelled that wrong) energy too when he joined, he was absolutely hilarious. Though he hasn't been on as much to see. Same with Acau and Kong (Again, let me know if I'm spelling these wrong)

It's just nice to see this kind of positivity again and remember the great things that this server can bring to people all around the world. I'm really excited to see more of them once the server gets back up and running at 100% again (I also cannot WAIT to see how YD and Kong interact with Chunsik)

(Edit)

Ohh and now I just saw her reply to Tubbo lmao!

My problem is that I hyperfixate on dramas I really like but then when I finish them I feel empty inside until I find a new to drama to hyperfixate on...
