What is the meaning of the name "Ahn-Li"?

2009-01-30 10:05 pm
I'm writing a book, and the main character of it is Chinese. I was thinking "Meiying" at first, but the name above has just stuck with me ever since I first heard it.
Help?

Is your character a girl? If it is, Ahn-Li can be written as 安麗, which means "peaceful" and "beautiful".

安 = peaceful, calm, quiet, tranquil
麗 = beautiful

You might actually want to change the name to An-Li, Ahn is not a common pronunciation in Chinese, it's more Korean or Vietnamese.

"Ahn", "An" : a Korean family name literally meaning "tranquility.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahn_(Korean_name)

"Ah" 阿 : Chinese given name, from the Chinese character 阿 which has no distinct meaning. It is not normally given as a name, but it can be prefixed to another name to make it a diminutive.

"Li" 理, 立, 黎, 力, 丽 : Chinese given name, from Chinese 理 "reason, logic", 立 "stand", 黎 "dawn, black", 力 "strength, power" (which is usually only masculine) or 丽 "beautiful" (usually only feminine).
