Around the world, กองกาญจน์ (กองกาญจน์ 
) is a rare largely feminine, but seldom male forename. The forename กองกาญจน์ is characteristic of South-eastern Asia, particularly Thailand, where it is a rare mostly girly, but uncommonly masculine name. Much less frequently, กองกาญจน์ is the last name as well as the forename.
