Yuhui is Chinese in Origin.

Yuhui is a Mandarin Chinese given name in Hanyu Pinyin, combining Yu and Hui; its sense depends on the chosen hanzi. Frequent Yu graphs include 宇 “cosmos,” 玉 “jade,” 瑜 “flawless jade,” 裕 “abundance,” and 语/語 “speech,” while Hui often appears as 辉/輝 or 晖/暉 “radiance,” 慧 “wisdom,” 惠 “benevolence,” or 蕙 “fragrant orchid.” Together they yield readings such as 宇辉 “cosmic brilliance,” 玉慧 “jade-like wisdom,” 瑜辉 “lustrous excellence,” 语慧 “eloquent wisdom,” or 裕惠 “abundant kindness.” The name is unisex; 辉/晖 leans masculine, 慧/惠 leans feminine.

Two-syllable given names like Yuhui have been standard in Chinese for centuries, but the spelling Yuhui spread with mid-20th-century Pinyin and is common across mainland China and the diaspora. Variant romanizations include Yu-Hui and Yu Hui; in older Wade–Giles, Yu-hui or Yü-hui. Do note that Korean Yu-hui (유희) is a different name.
