Phuong

From Sino-Vietnamese 芳, meaning 'fragrant' and 'virtuous,' or alternatively 方, meaning 'direction' or 'upright.' Phương is one of the most widely used Vietnamese female names, suggesting a woman of sweet character and moral uprightness. The word phương also appears in phương trời (direction of the sky) and phương xa (distant lands), giving the name a lyrical, aspirational quality.
