Tips

culture
A typical two-character feminine given name. (yǎ) means 'elegant / refined' (as in 优雅 'graceful') and (líng) evokes the tinkling sound of small jade pieces (玲珑 'exquisite, delicate'). Together they suggest a refined, delicately accomplished young woman — a popular naming pattern especially in Taiwan and Hong Kong since the 1960s-80s.
