Tips

culture
Classic feminine name combining ('cultured / literary') and ('virtuous / gentle' — the same character in 淑女 'lady'). The pairing was popular for women born in the Republican era (1912–1949) and earlier; today it sounds slightly old-fashioned but elegant. is a name-only character in modern usage — you almost never see it outside given names or the compound 淑女.
