Thinh is Vietnamese in Origin.

Thinh is the diacritic-free rendering of the Vietnamese given name Thịnh, from Sino‑Vietnamese thịnh (盛), meaning "prosperous, flourishing, abundant" and by extension “in full vigor” or “illustrious.” In Vietnamese it appears as a standalone given name or as the second element in compounds such as Đức Thịnh, Quang Thịnh, or Hữu Thịnh. The name evokes the ideal of hưng thịnh - national or familial prosperity - and carries auspicious connotations favored in name-giving.

Used for both genders but more common for boys, Thịnh has been recorded throughout modern Vietnamese history and remains familiar in the diaspora, where diacritics are often dropped to Thinh for ease of documents. Variants and related forms include the fully marked Thịnh, hyphenated compounds (e.g., Quang-Thịnh), and cognates in other Sino-xenic traditions - Chinese Sheng, Korean Seong, and Japanese Sei - sharing the root sense of thriving or prosperity.
