Bo-ram is a Korean unisex given name. The word itself is a native Korean word meaning "valuable" or "worthwhile" and does not have corresponding hanja. However, since Korean given names can be created arbitrarily, it may also be a name with hanja (e.g. 寶濫).[1] According to a 2010 study by Chosun University professor Kang Hui-suk, it was the sixth-most common given name among women who graduated from the university that year.[2]
People with this name include:
