HEEWON is how she spells her name, but as she is a US citizen, it may have been simplified in some way.

Google gives 61.000 hits, so it seems to be a somewhat popular name. However I couldn't find anything about the meaning. Any ideas?

There seems to be a famous garden in Korea named Hee Won. The following article gives the meaning of the name as "bright garden":

Of course not sure at all, Heewon as a personal name could be the same word/expression and hence have the same meaning.
