Chung-Ho is Korean in Origin.

Chung-Ho is an East Asian compound masculine name formed from Sino-Korean or Chinese morphemes whose meanings depend on the characters chosen. The first element Chung can represent hanja/hanzi such as 忠 ‘loyal’, 中 ‘central’, 鍾/鐘 ‘bell; devoted’, or 正/政 ‘upright; governance’ (rendered Jeong/Jung in modern Korean or Zhong in Pinyin). The second element Ho corresponds to ho/hao/he characters like 浩 ‘vast, grand’, 皓 ‘bright’, 昊 ‘expansive sky’, 虎 ‘tiger’, 和 ‘harmony’, or 豪 ‘heroic’. Hyphenation follows Korean naming style, while Chinese spellings vary by romanization.

In Korea, the name appears as Jeong-ho or Jung-ho under Revised Romanization, with Chung-ho and Chong-ho seen in older systems and diaspora records; it was widely used for men in the mid–late 20th century. In Sinophone contexts, Chung-ho in Wade–Giles maps to Pinyin Zhonghe (中和, ‘central harmony’) or Zhonghao (e.g., 忠浩). Variants include Chungho, Chung-hao, Jeong-ho, Jung-ho, Jong-ho, Zhonghe, and Zhonghao.
