Jintao

Jintao is a masculine name for the little one who is rich in love, joy, and excitement for their journey ahead. As a combination of the Chinese titles Jin and Tao, Jintao has several possible meanings, depending on the exact characters used to write the name. Perhaps baby will see Jin’s translation of “gold” or “money” as a sign of a prosperous future where they’ll have everything they need to succeed. Jin can also mean “tapestry” or “ferry,” so don’t be surprised if little Jintao weaves their way to new shores someday. Getting to new shores will probably require traveling by sea, making Tao’s meaning of “large waves” even more fitting. If baby ever asks about notable figures who share their name, you can tell them about Hu Jintao, the former president of China.
