Eun-jung is Korean in Origin.

Eun-jung is a Korean given name, predominantly feminine, built from the Sino-Korean syllables eun (은) and jeong/jung (정). Its meaning depends on the hanja selected: eun may denote grace or kindness (恩) or silver (銀), while jeong can mean virtue/chastity (貞), affection (情), quiet (靜), or upright/correct (正). Common combinations yield readings such as “gracious and virtuous,” “kind affection,” or “silver crystal,” among others.

The name saw strong popularity in South Korea from the 1970s onward and remains familiar through media and pop-culture figures. Romanization varies: Eun-jeong is the Revised Romanization, while Ŭnjŏng is the McCune–Reischauer form; Jung is a widely used personal spelling in English, producing Eun-jung or Eunjung. Hyphenation and spacing are flexible (Eun Jung, Eun-Jung). Related names sharing elements include Eun-ji, Eun-seo, and So-jeong.
