How do you pronounce the name “Liqun”

Question

The title already describes what i would like to know.

How to pronounce the Chinese name Liqun.

Is Liqun their given name? Or is "Li" the surname and "Qun" the given name, as Tang Ho assumes? Either way, if you want to know how it's pronounced, I would look at this chart which has audio recordings of all Mandarin syllables (e.g., li and qun). — Stumpy Joe Pete, Aug 13 at 17:19

“李群” “/Lǐ Qún/ I think

李 /li3/ is a common family name

/qun2/ can be 裙(skirt), 羣 or 群 (multitude;crowd; group)

I don't think any parent would name their child 李裙
