Li Meiyu is Chinese in Origin.

Li Meiyu is a Mandarin Chinese name composed of the surname Li (李) and the feminine given name Meiyu. In characters, Meiyu is commonly written 美玉 (“beautiful jade”), 梅玉 (“plum blossom jade”), or 美瑜 (“beautiful, fine jade”); all evoke the prized qualities of jade - purity, virtue, and enduring grace. The surname Li, among China’s most prevalent since the Tang era, signals Han Chinese heritage and is also borne in Korea and Vietnam via the same character. Together the name conveys elegance, resilience, and refined character.

Romanization appears as Li Meiyu (Hanyu Pinyin), Lǐ Měiyù with tones, and Mei-yu with a hyphen; Wade–Giles renders the vowel as Mei-yü. Cantonese forms include Lei Mei-yuk (李美玉). Variants in English contexts sometimes spell the surname Lee. Usage is widespread in mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the diaspora, with Meiyu favored for girls in the 20th–21st centuries.
