Yong-ho
Yong-ho is a Korean masculine given name. The meaning of the name differs based on the hanja used to write each syllable of the name. There are 24 hanja with the reading " yong" and 49 hanja with the reading "ho" on the South Korean government's official list of hanja which may be used in given names. Additionally, names beginning with the hanja meaning " dragon" may be pronounced and spelled either as Yong-ho or Ryong-ho. The latter spelling is standard in North Korea and among Koreans in China; see North–South differences in the Korean language.
