My given name, Eunhong (銀洪), combines the character for “silver” (銀), symbolizing purity and value, with the character for “vast flood” (洪), denoting greatness, abundance, and expansive flow. Together, the name suggests “precious as silver and expansive as a great flood.”
I always get the question: “Why did your parents pick silver instead of gold?” My answer is usually that silver shines more softly, lasts just as long, and maybe—just maybe—was more affordable at the time!
