Li Ching is a Mandarin Chinese given name formed from two syllables rendered in Wade–Giles; in Pinyin it corresponds to Liqing or Li Jing depending on the underlying consonant. Characters vary, with common pairs including 丽清 “beautiful + clear,” 莉清 “jasmine + pure,” 丽静 “beautiful + serene,” and 立青 “establish + youthful green.” The name is most often feminine, though forms like 立青 are unisex.
It appears across mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the diaspora; hyphenated Li-ching and solid Liqing are also seen. Cantonese romanization yields Lee Ching or Lei Ching; related Pinyin forms are Li Qing and Li Jing. The spelling gained visibility in the mid‑20th century via Hong Kong cinema, especially actress Li Ching (李菁).
