Young

Young, youthful, or brave

Derived from the Middle English 'yunge' or 'yonge', this name was originally used as a surname to distinguish a younger son from a father with the same name. In a Korean context, it is a common given name element (often transliterated as Yeong) meaning 'flower', 'brave', or 'eternal' depending on the hanja used. In the West, it retains a straightforward, descriptive quality.
