Lixuan is Chinese in Origin.

Lixuan is a Mandarin Chinese given name romanized in Hanyu Pinyin as Li Xuan; tones vary (Lìxuān, Lǐxuān, or Líxuān) depending on the chosen characters. It appears as Lixuan, Li-Xuan, or Li Xuan in Latin script; older systems render it Li-hsüan, and other Sinitic languages pronounce it differently. The name is unisex and common across Mainland China, Taiwan, Singapore, and the Chinese diaspora from the late 20th century onward. Note that Li may also be a surname, so “Li Xuan” can be a full name rather than a two-character given name.

Meaning depends on hanzi. Frequent pairings include 丽萱 (Lìxuān, “beautiful daylily,” evoking the worry-soothing萱草 in classical poetry), 丽璇 (Lìxuán, “beautiful fine jade,” symbolizing brilliance), and 立轩 (Lìxuān, “establishing loftiness,” with 轩 meaning a high-railed carriage/hall). Other Xuan options - 宣 (proclaim), 玄 (mysterious), 绚/璇 (brilliant/precious) - shift nuance. Feminine-leaning forms use 丽/萱/璇; 立/轩/宣 often read as more masculine.
