Tien-Hao is Vietnamese in Origin.

Tien-Hao is a Sino-Chinese given name. Tien reflects an older romanization of Mandarin Tian (天) “heaven; sky.” Hao can be written as 豪 “heroic, magnanimous,” 浩 “vast,” 皓 “luminous, white,” or 昊 “expansive sky.” Combined, the name conveys ideas like “heavenly hero,” “vast heavens,” or “celestial brightness,” and is most often masculine.

Hyphenation reflects mid-20th-century Taiwanese and overseas Chinese romanization (notably Wade-Giles). In modern Hanyu Pinyin it appears as Tianhao, while legacy spellings include Tien-hao, Tienhao, and Wade-Giles T’ien-hao. Cantonese forms are Tin-ho (for 浩) or Tin-hou (for 皓/昊); Southern Min may show Thian-hau. The name became common in Taiwan and the Chinese diaspora in the late 1900s and remains familiar today. Because tone marks are rarely written in Latin script, exact meaning varies with the characters a family selects.
