Jae-ho is Korean in Origin.

Jae-ho is a Korean masculine given name formed from two Sino-Korean syllables, written in Hangul as 재호 and in Hanja with many possible characters. Its meaning depends on the chosen Hanja: common options for Jae (재) include 才 “talent,” 財 “wealth,” and 在 “to exist,” while Ho (호) may be 浩 “vast,” 昊 “expansive sky,” 虎 “tiger,” 湖 “lake,” or 豪 “heroic.” Combinations yield readings such as “talented and vast,” “prosperous tiger,” or “enduring under the broad sky.”

The name has been widely used in modern Korea, especially among men born in the late 20th century, and remains familiar across both Koreas and the Korean diaspora. Parents select specific Hanja from government-approved lists to express virtues or aspirations. Spelling variants include Jae-ho (standard Revised Romanization), Jaeho or Jae Ho (without a hyphen), and the McCune–Reischauer form Chaeho; capitalization as Jae-Ho also appears. Approximate pronunciation is JEH-ho.
