usage

伊南 has two main uses: (1) a Chinese given name combining 伊 'this / she (literary)' with 南 'south' — a relatively literary, elegant feel; (2) a transliteration of foreign names like the Turkish surname İnan or the Hindu goddess Ina. Also note the homophone 沂南 (Yínán) — a county in Shandong Province, written with 沂 'River Yi'.
