What is Korean Name

Korean names are originated from the Chinese names as part of Sino-Korean vocabulary. The family names in Korean majorly only consist of one syllable, and Korean have no middle name. The early names using Korean language were tracked during the Three Kingdom period (57 BCE – 668 CE). Before 14^th century, the hangul system is not adopted yet, so the Korean names were written using Chinese characters, or what we called as Hanja.

Later, during the Mongol alliance period, the Korean upper class combined their names with Mongolian names to interact with the Mongol Court, while still using their Korean names in other places.
