Khuong Pham is Vietnamese in Origin.

Khuong Pham is a Vietnamese name typically written in Western order, with Khuong as the given name and Pham as the family name (standard Vietnamese order: Phạm Khương). Both elements are Sino-Vietnamese. Phạm derives from the Chinese surname 范 (Fan), associated with the idea of a “model” or “pattern” and long established among major Vietnamese lineages since the Lý–Trần periods. Khương corresponds to 姜, the ancient Jiang clan name, also meaning “ginger,” a symbol of vigor and pungent vitality; it appears in classical Sino-Vietnamese literature (e.g., Khương Tử Nha). As a given name, Khương is used for boys more often but remains broadly unisex.

Variants include the fully marked Khương Phạm and the ASCII form Khuong Pham; less commonly, Khuông (from 匡, “to rectify, support”) may underlie the spelling. In diaspora contexts, the diacritics are frequently omitted. The name’s usage has spread globally with Vietnamese communities.
