The given name 菊 is characteristic of Eastern Asia, particularly China, where it is quite a rare primarily feminine, but very seldom male name, South Korea, where it is quite a rare epicene name, and Hong Kong, where it is quite a rare dominantly female, but uncommonly male name. Measured by absolute frequency, the name is most common in China, South Korea, and India. Very seldom, 菊 is the last name as well as the forename.
