Anh Linh is Vietnamese in Origin.
Anh Linh is a Vietnamese compound given name formed from Sino-Vietnamese morphemes: Anh (英) meaning “excellent, heroic, outstanding” and Linh (靈/玲) meaning “spirit, sacred; or tinkling jade, clever.” Together, the name evokes “heroic/bright spirit” and “numinous excellence,” suggesting a person of talent with a lively, spiritually attuned presence. It is used for all genders, though in recent decades it has skewed slightly feminine.
Beyond personal naming, anh linh is a classical phrase in Vietnamese memorial rhetoric for the “heroic souls” of the departed, giving the name a dignified, reverent undertone. Usage as a given name rose in the late 20th century with the popularity of double-syllable virtue names. Variants and close forms include Linh Anh (syllable reversal), Ánh Linh (Ánh “radiance” + Linh), and the hyphenated Anh-Linh; romanization in documents may appear as Anh Linh or Anhlinh.
Anh Linh is exceptionally rare. There are only 7 recorded uses on record, spread over 4 countries.
