What is the meaning of the name Gaho ?

The baby name Gaho is a Unisex name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced GA-ho (gah-ho); Korean pronunciation approximately [ka.ho].

Gaho is Korean in Origin.

Gaho is a cross-cultural name with distinct roots in Korean and Japanese. In Korean (Ga-ho, 가호), it is a two-syllable given name built from hanja such as 嘉/佳 (“auspicious, fine”) and 浩/昊 (“vast, great; broad sky”), yielding meanings like “auspicious vastness” or “beautiful sky.” Exact sense depends on the chosen characters. Usage is rare but modern, leaning masculine because Ho-names are traditional for boys; variants in romanization include Ga-ho and Ka-ho (McCune–Reischauer). A well-known bearer is the South Korean singer Gaho (stage name).

Separately, in Japanese the reading Gahō (often written without macron as Gaho) appears as a male given or art name; the painter Hashimoto Gahō (橋本 雅邦, 1835–1908) wrote it with 雅邦, meaning “elegant nation.” Other kanji could change the meaning. Note that Japanese Kaho (e.g., 果歩, 花穂) is a different name despite similar spelling.
