Yu-jin, also spelled Yoo-jin, is a unisex given name of Korean origin, its meaning dependent upon the hanja used to write it. There are numerous possibilities as to how to spell the name in hanja; there are 62 hanja that can be used to represent the yu sound and 48 hanja that can be used to represent the jin sound.[1] The name is popular as not only is a traditional Korean name but can be romanized as Eugene, allowing children to have not only a name that is Korean in origin but easy for Westerners to pronounce.[2] In the early 2000s, Yu-jin was among the most popular names for baby boys, but later in the decade, it saw a fall in popularity, and by 2008 Yu-jin had fallen out of the top ten.[3]
