Quynh-Anh is Vietnamese in Origin.

Quynh-Anh is a Vietnamese compound given name combining Quỳnh and Anh. Quỳnh (from Sino-Vietnamese 琼) denotes “fine jade” and, in modern Vietnamese, evokes the night-blooming cereus flower (hoa quỳnh), a symbol of rare, delicate beauty. Anh (英) means “outstanding, heroic, excellent,” and by extension “bright” or “talented.” Together, Quỳnh Anh suggests “a brilliant, exceptional person with the refined beauty of the quỳnh flower,” making it a graceful, aspirational feminine name.

Used across Vietnam and the diaspora since the late 20th century, it fits the common two-syllable pattern for Vietnamese girls’ names. Hyphenation often appears in Western records to keep the pair intact, hence Quynh-Anh; in Vietnamese, Quỳnh Anh (with a space) is standard. Variants include Quỳnh Anh, Quỳnh-Anh, Quynh Anh, and Quynh-Anh (without diacritics). Related single-name forms are Quỳnh and Anh.
