Sun-ja Name meanings & History

Sun-ja means “goodness” or “virtuous” in Korean. From Sino-Korean 順 "obey, submit to, go along with" and 子 "child". Sun-ja was the seventh-most popular name for Korean girls born in 1940. The same characters correspond to a number of Japanese female given names, including Junko. Sun-ja is one of a number of Japanese-style names ending in ja that were popular when Korea was under Japanese rule, but declined in popularity afterwards.
