It is a name of Chinese origin, so it is obvious that it has many transliterations. It is not at all common in Spanish, although as Jorge Luis Tovar Díaz already commented he had some popularity thanks to the character Chin Ho Kelly of the series Hawaii Five-O and Hawaii Five-0 ("Hawaii Five Zero") where he was played by actor Kam Fong in the original and by Daniel Dae Kim in the remake. The meaning is difficult for a Westerner to recognize, as there are subtleties in pronunciation that escape us, especially if we see it written in Latin characters; it could be understood as "thick chin" (I say, considering he is a Hollywood hero 129414;!) , although it is more likely to be "giving, sharing his material goods") , by 37329; ( yin "gold" ) and 21402; ( jou "generous") .
Chin Ho was a detective attached to the 5-0 division of the Hawaii Island Police. Of Chinese origin, this investigator sometimes accompanied Inspector Steve McGarrett director of the aforementioned secret division of the Police. The detectives of Five-0 were characterized by operating impeccably dressed (with sack and tie), always equipped with short-range automatic weapons.
