Chinghiz is Mongolian in Origin.
Chinghiz is a romanized form of Mongolian Činggis, the title-name borne by Temüjin as Činggis Qa’an after his elevation in 1206. The earliest secure written attestations are Middle Mongolian forms such as Činggis in thirteenth-century sources, including the tradition behind The Secret History of the Mongols. Its internal morphology is disputed; no dependable literal meaning can be assigned.
Outside Mongolia, the name spread chiefly through renderings of the conqueror’s title: Persian and Arabic histories helped establish Genghis, while Turkic languages use forms such as Cengiz and Çingiz. Chinghiz appears as a transliteration in Central Asian and Caucasian contexts, notably alongside Chingiz, as in the Kyrgyz writer Chingiz Aitmatov. Modern use remains strongly shaped by the historical association with Genghis Khan rather than by an independent naming tradition.
We can't find Chinghiz in any of the birth registries or name datasets we track. Most often that means a rare name, a regional or heritage one, or a recent coinage. By any reading, it's an exceptionally uncommon choice.
