About Yuelan

A Chinese name with a beautiful, nature-inspired meaning, Yuelan blends lán meaning "orchid, elegant" with yuè meaning "moon". With different characters, however, it could also mean "surpass + the mountain mist" or "moon + blue", though for girls, the orchid meaning is more popular.

The name appears in the novel Lady Tan's Circle of Women by Lisa See, sister to Ailan and Chunlan. YWEH-LAN is an approximate pronunciation for the name.

Pronounced yoo-EH-lahn.
