Ji-Hoon is Korean in Origin.
Ji-Hoon (지훈) is a Korean masculine given name formed from Sino-Korean syllables whose meanings depend on the chosen hanja. Common Ji characters include 智 “wisdom,” 志 “will/ambition,” 知 “knowledge,” and 祉 “blessing.” Hoon is often written with 勳/勛 “merit, achievement,” 訓 “instruction,” 薰 “to imbue; fragrance,” or 琿 “beautiful jade.” Typical combinations evoke ideas such as “wise merit,” “ambitious achievement,” or “one who teaches with knowledge.” Parents select characters from South Korea’s approved hanja list, though the name may also be written purely in Hangul.
The name rose to wide popularity for boys from the late 20th century into the 2000s and remains familiar today, appearing across entertainment and sports. Variants include Ji-hoon, Ji Hoon, Jihoon; official Revised Romanization is Ji-hun, while McCune–Reischauer renders it Chi-hun. Less common spellings are Jee-hoon or Jihun.
