Li Jian-Jun is Chinese in Origin.

Li Jian-Jun is a Mandarin Chinese compound name, with Li (李) a long-established surname meaning "plum," and Jian-Jun a two-syllable given name rendered in pinyin. Exact sense depends on the written characters: Jian may be 建 "to build," 健 "healthy," or 剑 "sword"; Jun often 俊 "talented, handsome," 军 "army," or 君 "gentleman, ruler." Common pairings include 建军 ("establish the army") and 健俊 ("robust and gifted").

The hyphen reflects Western styling; in Chinese the given name is two characters without a hyphen. Jianjun became especially prevalent in mainland China in the mid-20th century, with 建军 popular during the revolutionary era and linked to Army Day (Jianjun Jie). Romanized variants include Li Jianjun or Li Jian Jun; legacy systems show Lee Chien-chün (Wade-Giles), while Cantonese for 建军 approximates Lee Gin-gwan. The surname appears regionally as Lee (Cantonese/Taiwan), Yi/Lee (Korean), and Lý (Vietnamese).
