If you’ve been looking for the perfect name for a little one, a new member of your family, or someone else’s, that is inspired by K-Pop, we’ve got the perfect list for you! Note: Not all these names are Korean. Furthermore, they are all gender-neutral names in the sense that their meanings imply that you can use these names regardless of gender. The intended meanings of the names as used by the mentioned idols might not be the same.
1. Joon/Jun
A number of K-Pop idols are named Joon/Jun, all of whom are hugely successful! Take, for example, Kim NamJoon or RM from BTS, Jun from SEVENTEEN, or Jun from A.C.E.
2. JiSoo
JiSoo is a beautiful name that roughly means “wise and intelligent”. From BLACKPINK’s JiSoo to SEVENTEEN’s Joshua whose real name is Hong JiSoo, this name is quite popular!
3. Jin
If you want a child to have the confidence of BTS’ Jin and the grace of Lovelyz’ JIN, the choice is simple: name them Jin!
4. Ren
Ren is a wonderful name, both delicate and powerful at the same time. NU’EST’s Ren is perfectly suited to the name.
5. Min
From “heaven” to “jade”, the name Min can have many meanings, depending on the Hanja characters that are used to write the same. Either way, it would be a graceful name like miss A’s Min.
6. Hoshi
If you’re looking to raise a brave and courageous child, Hoshi would be an amazing name, inspired by none other than SEVENTEEN’s Hoshi.
7. Hope
Inspired by everyone’s favourite Hope, BTS’ J-Hope, this name is not only sweet and wholesome but also holds huge potential.

No matter where you’re from or what language you speak, Chani is going to sound beautiful regardless, making for an amazing name like SF9’s Chani.
9. Arang
Pink Fantasy’s Arang inspired this entry on the list with a lovely folklore-inspired gender-neutral name that would turn heads everywhere.
10. Seol
A number of Korean celebrities have ‘Seol’ in their names such as Sulli (Seol-li) and AOA’s SeolHyun. ‘Seol’ means snow, which would make for an adorable name for someone as pure and soft as snow.
