History & Etymology
Tzuyu (子瑜) is a Chinese given name, typically feminine. The name is composed of two characters: '子' (zǐ) and '瑜' (yú). '子' is a versatile character with meanings such as 'child,' 'son,' 'seed,' or a term of respect. '瑜' means 'fine jade' or 'luster of jade,' often implying beauty, elegance, and value. The combination creates a name that evokes qualities of preciousness, grace, and youth. While the name itself has a long history within Chinese culture, its prominence in the Western world is relatively recent, largely due to the global rise of K-pop.
