Da-som is a Korean feminine given name. Unlike most Korean names, which are composed of two Sino-Korean roots each written with one hanja, "Da-som" is an indigenous Korean name: a single word meaning "love".[1] It is an older variation of the South Korean name Sa-rang; both names carry the meaning of "love". It is one of a number of such indigenous names which became more popular in South Korea in the late 20th century.[1]
