慧（hui）
Name meaning
慧 (hui) means wisdom, intelligence and clear insight. In names it is bright, learned and often gentle or feminine, but it can also carry Buddhist-literary depth.
Practical naming use
慧 (hui) is a classic wisdom character. It is useful when the desired image is perceptive, thoughtful, educated and emotionally intelligent. It should not be explained as cleverness alone; the better reading is insight joined to timing, judgment and compassion, especially because the character appears strongly in Buddhist names and intellectual language.
Pair 慧 (hui) with clarity, peace or elegance: 慧明 (Huiming), 慧宁 (Huining), 慧雅 (Huiya) or 慧文 (Huiwen). Avoid another heavily intellectual character if the name becomes too abstract.
慧明 (Huiming): Hui contributes wisdom, intelligence; Ming adds brightness, clarity.
