Seo
Meaning of Seo
The name Seo is a distinctive male name of Korean origin, typically pronounced as 'suh' (/sʌ/). In Korean, Seo often appears as a surname but is also used as a given name. It carries connotations of rarity and uniqueness, possibly due to its concise, one-syllable structure which sets it apart in both sound and style. The name has begun to see usage outside of Korea, though it remains relatively rare in countries like the United States. For instance, in 2023, the name was given to only 5 newborn boys, ranking it at 12,190th in popularity. A variation of the name includes Seohee, which may be considered if looking for a more distinctly feminine option. This minimalistic yet profound name could be an excellent choice for parents seeking something simple yet culturally rich.
