Throughout the world, 艳华 (艳华 
, Yanhua 
) is a widespread largely feminine, but infrequently boy's first name. The forename 艳华 is characteristic of Eastern Asia, particularly China, where it is quite a common mostly female, but infrequently male name, Taiwan, where it is quite a rare female name, and Hong Kong, where it is a rare female name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is commonest in China, Taiwan, and the United States. Very seldom, 艳华 is the last name as well as the forename.
