All around the world, 金根 (金根 
, Jingen 
, Kingon 
) is a common primarily male, but scarcely female given name. The given name 金根 is characteristic of China, where it is quite a rare predominantly boy's, but scarcely feminine name, Philippines, where it is a very rare feminine name, and India, where it is an extremely rare masculine name. Much less frequently, 金根 is the last name as well as the forename.
