Li Meixiu is Chinese in Origin.
Li Meixiu is a Mandarin Chinese name in the traditional order: surname followed by given name. Li (李) is one of the most common Chinese surnames and denotes the plum tree. Meixiu, rendered in pinyin, usually corresponds to 美秀 ("beautiful" + "elegant/outstanding") or, less often, 梅秀 ("plum blossom" + "graceful"), giving meanings such as "elegant beauty" or "grace like the plum blossom."
Given names combining mei and xiu have long been favored for girls, appearing in Republican-era and contemporary records across mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the diaspora. Variants and romanizations include Li Mei-hsiu (Wade–Giles), Lee Meixiu or Li Mei Xiu (Anglicized spacings), Cantonese Lei/Lee Mei Sau (Jyutping: Lei5 Mei5 Sau3), and Southeast Asian forms like Lee Mei Siew. Related rearrangements include Xiumei (秀美) or Xiùméi (秀梅). Exact nuance depends on the chosen characters.
Li Meixiu doesn't appear in any of the birth registries or name datasets we track. That's typically a sign of a rare name, a regional or traditional one, or a modern coinage. Either way, it remains a genuinely rare choice.
