What do Korean names mean? Korean last names are passed from a father to his children, but first names are selected by the parents. There are two types of names that a parent can select: Sino-Korean names, and Pure Korean names. Sino means Chinese, so Sino-Korean names are names that come from Chinese characters. This type of name is the most common by far. In order to make a Sino-Korean name, the parents will choose two Chinese characters that have the pronunciation of a name that they want.
