Jeong-eun, also spelled Jung-eun, Jeong-un, or Jong-un, is a Korean given name.

The Seoul-based Korean Broadcasting System (KBS) reported, based on a document obtained by North Korean defector and KBS employee Park Jin-hee, that beginning in January 2011 North Korea banned birth registrations using the name Kim Jong-un and required existing bearers of the name to change to a different name. The authenticity of the document could not be confirmed.[1]
