Many Korean parents start naming a baby with a preferred starting sound — often chosen for family tradition, generational naming characters (돌림자), or simply how it sounds with the surname. This tool lets you browse every pronounceable syllable for a chosen consonant instead of guessing at spellings by hand.
Once you have a candidate name, look up matching Hanja characters (see our Hanja finder tool) to confirm the meaning, and say the full name with the surname out loud to check the rhythm and any awkward sound clashes.
