Hyun-ha (현하) is a Korean unisex given name whose meaning varies with the chosen hanja. For Hyun/Hyeon (현), popular characters include 賢 “virtuous, wise,” 玄 “deep, mysterious,” and 顯 “illustrious, manifest.” For Ha (하), common options are 夏 “summer,” 河 “river,” 霞 “rosy mist,” and 下 “below/under.” Combinations yield poetic readings such as “virtuous summer” (賢夏), “mysterious river” (玄河), or “illustrious rosy mist” (顯霞).

Two-syllable Sino-Korean names have been standard since the Goryeo–Joseon eras, and Hyun- elements were especially fashionable in the late 20th century; -ha endings have surged in the 2000s–2020s, so Hyun-ha feels both timeless and current. Spellings vary: Hyeon-ha is the Revised Romanization, while Hyun-ha and hyphenless Hyunha/Hyeonha are also seen; McCune–Reischauer gives Hyŏn-ha. Nicknames include Hyun, Ha, and Hyunie. Dozens of hanja for each syllable are officially permitted in South Korea, allowing families to tailor the name’s nuance.
