Li Meixian is Chinese in Origin.
Li Meixian is a Mandarin Chinese name combining the surname Li (李, Lǐ, “plum”) with the feminine given name Meixian (美娴/嫻, Měixián, “beautiful and composed”). Alternative character choices yield nuances such as 美仙 (“beautiful immortal/fairy”), 梅娴/嫻 (“plum blossom, serene”), or 梅贤/賢 (“plum, virtuous”), so meaning depends on the characters selected.
Li ranks among the most common Chinese surnames, borne by the Tang imperial clan and many lineages; in diaspora it appears as Li or Lee. Romanization variants for the given name include Mei Xian, Mei-xian, and the Wade–Giles Mei-hsien; with tones: Lǐ Měixián. In Cantonese contexts, 李 is typically Lee, and Meixian may be rendered as Mei-sin (美仙) or Mei-haan (美嫻), depending on characters. The customary Chinese order is surname first (Li Meixian); in Western settings the order may reverse (Meixian Li).
Li Meixian is absent from every birth registry and name dataset we follow. That's typically a sign of a rare name, a regional or traditional one, or a modern coinage. By any reading, it's an exceptionally uncommon choice.
