Hye-ri is Korean in Origin.
Hye-ri (혜리) is a Korean feminine given name built from the Sino-Korean syllables hye and ri. Its meaning depends on the hanja chosen: common options are 慧/惠 (“wise; gracious”) for Hye and 利/俐/理/梨/莉 (“benefit; clever; reason; pear; jasmine”) for Ri, producing readings such as “wise and beneficial,” “gracious reason,” or “bright jasmine.” Romanization variants include Hyeri (Revised Romanization), Hye-ri (hyphenated), and Hye Ri; all reflect the same pronunciation.
In South Korea the name gained steady use in the late 20th century and remains familiar today. Public figures have kept it visible, notably singer–actress Lee Hye-ri (Hyeri of Girl’s Day) and actress Kim Hye-ri. The two-syllable structure and flexible hanja let families tailor nuance - from studious intelligence to kindness - while preserving a soft, lively sound.
