焜煌 [Brilliant and glittering] (the first character is pronounced with the fanqie hú + běn [kūn]. Guo Pu's commentary on the Fangyan states: "Kūnhuáng denotes a flourishing appearance." The Shuowen states: "Kūn also means huáng [brilliant]. It takes 'huǒ' (火) as its semantic classifier and 'kūn' (昆) as its phonetic component." The second character is pronounced like huáng [huáng]. The Cang Jie pian states: "Huánghuáng means bright." The Shuowen states: "Radiant. It takes 'huǒ' (火) as its semantic classifier and 'huáng' (皇) as its phonetic component").
