Lei-Hua is Chinese in Origin.
Lei-Hua is a Sinitic given name formed from the Mandarin elements lei and hua. Depending on characters, Lei may be 蕾 (bud, a feminine, nature-inspired choice), 雷 (thunder), or 磊 (upright, rocklike); Hua is most often 花 (flower), but can be 华 (splendid; Chinese). Combined, likely readings include 蕾花 (flower bud), 蕾华 (budding splendor), or 雷华 (thunderous radiance), spanning imagery from delicate to bold.
Used chiefly for girls since the mid-20th century in China, Taiwan, and the diaspora, the name fits a long tradition of floral and virtue compounds while keeping a modern hyphenated romanization. Variants include Leihua, Lei Hua, and Lei-hwa; Cantonese renderings may appear as Lai-fa or Loi-fa when written 麗花/麗華, meaning beautiful flower or beautiful splendor. Tone-marked pinyin forms Lěihuā or Léihuá clarify the intended characters. Related choices include Lihua (梨花, pear blossom) and Meihua (梅花, plum blossom).
