Meaning & Origin of Chul
Origin: Korean.
A common claim: Often glossed on baby-name sites as meaning 'long life and excellence'. Actually: This isn't a fixed meaning -- Korean name syllables like 'chul' take their meaning from whichever hanja is chosen (e.g. 鐵 'iron' or 哲 'wise'), and no standard hanja corresponds to 'long life and excellence'.
