Chen Juan is Chinese in Origin.

Chen Juan is a Mandarin Chinese compound name presented in Hanyu Pinyin. In modern Chinese contexts it most often denotes the full name 陈娟/陳娟, with Chen (Chén) as the family name and Juan (Juān) as the feminine given name; as a two-syllable given name it can also appear as 晨娟, 宸娟, or 琛娟.

Meanings depend on characters: Chen 晨 “morning; dawn,” 宸 “imperial residence,” or 琛 “precious treasure”; Juan 娟 means “graceful, delicate, lovely.” Together, combinations suggest ideas like “grace at dawn” or “precious grace.” Variants and romanizations include Chén Juān (with tones), Chen-Juan, and Chenjuan; in Cantonese, the surname appears as Chan and 娟 as Gyun (Jyutping); the Hokkien/Teochew surname form is Tan; Wade–Giles renders the name as Ch’en Chüan. The element 娟 was especially popular for girls in the late 20th century, and the name remains a classic, softly feminine choice across Mainland China, Taiwan, and the Chinese diaspora. It is unrelated to the Spanish male name Juan.
