ChungHo is Korean in Origin.
ChungHo (충호) is a Korean masculine given name formed from two Sino-Korean syllables, with meaning determined by the hanja selected. Romanization varies as Chung-ho, Chungho, or Choong-ho; in McCune-Reischauer it appears as Ch'ungho. It is distinct from Jeong-ho (정호) and Cheong-ho (청호), which use different vowels and hanja sets but can sound similar to non-Korean ears.
Common hanja for Chung include 忠 "loyal; faithful", 充 "abundant; full", 沖 "open water or depth", or 衝 "impetus; vital point". For Ho, frequent choices are 浩 "vast", 昊 "expansive sky", 皓 "bright", 豪 "magnanimous", 虎 "tiger", or 湖 "lake". Thus pairings like 忠浩 convey "loyal and vast", 充皓 "abundant brightness", or 忠虎 "loyal tiger". The name was especially popular for boys in the mid to late 20th century in Korea, remains a steady classic today, and appears widely in the Korean diaspora.
