Jingjing is Chinese in Origin.

Jingjing is a Chinese given name formed by reduplication of Jing (Mandarin pinyin), a long-standing naming pattern used as affectionate diminutives and now formal given names. Depending on the characters, it can be Jīngjīng or Jìngjìng, with diverse meanings: 晶晶 “sparkling, crystalline brightness”; 静静/靜靜 “quiet, serene”; 菁菁 “lush, flourishing; talented”; 景景 “splendid, scenic”; 靖靖 “peaceful”; 京京 “of the capital.” The reduplication adds sweetness, youthfulness, or emphasis.

Such reduplicated names appear throughout Chinese history and surged in popularity in the late 20th century in mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the diaspora, often given to girls but unisex. Notable bearer Guo Jingjing (郭晶晶), Olympic diving champion, exemplifies the 晶晶 spelling. Romanized variants include Jing-jing, Jing Jing, and Ching-ching/Ching Ching in older Wade-Giles or Cantonese systems; the exact meaning depends on the characters chosen by the family.
