Sang is a boy's name with Korean roots, used as both a surname and a name element — pronounced sahng-HOON. You may see it glossed online as meaning 'everlasting goodness,' but that specific combined meaning isn't actually attested; in Korean naming, meaning depends entirely on which Hanja character is chosen, so there's no single fixed meaning documented for Sang on its own. If you're drawn to it, think of it as a name that pairs a global, cross-cultural feel with a clean, minimalist sound.
