Meaning & Origin
The Story of Bomi
Bomi (보미) is a Korean feminine given name composed of two elements: bo (보, meaning beautiful, treasure, or precious) and mi (미, meaning beauty). Together they create a name that evokes radiant, treasured beauty. An alternate reading using native Korean bom (봄, spring) gives the name the poetic meaning of spring beauty, suggesting freshness and new beginnings — a beloved theme in Korean naming.
Bomi has been a recognized Korean feminine name for decades and gained international visibility through K-pop group Apink, whose member Park Bomi (born 1993) brought the name to a global fanbase in the 2010s.
In Korean naming culture, the combination of bo (beautiful/precious) and mi (beauty) is a classic pairing that expresses a parent wish for a daughter to possess graceful beauty. The alternate spring reading adds seasonal freshness to the name meaning.
