Origin:Chinese
Meaning:Joy; Harmony; King, ruler
Originally from China, Yijun is a gender-neutral baby name meaning “joy,” “harmony,” king,” or “ruler.” Throughout China’s history, harmony between people and the universe has been a popular value. To carry out this peaceful state, one must carry out acts of benevolence, loyalty, honesty, and more. As luck would have it, the name Yijun actually carries some of these amicable traits and can inspire baby to find harmony in the smallest things. Whether you’re raising baby in Chinese tradition or not, Yijun can find joy in the everyday. If you’re preparing for the arrival of a mini monarch, Yijun’s ties to the Wanli emperor of China—also known as Zhu Yijun—might pique your interest, too.
