Yes. Sometimes names were given not for its meaning but due to the particular birth date of the person, and the radical components of the word, like having, say, "water", "fire", "earth", "metal", are used to "balance-up" the person's astrological reading.

In first-names, sometimes two characters join together and form a simple meaning e.g. 国強 could mean '国家富强 (the nation is strong)' or '国之強者 (the strong one in the nation)'

晓 and 敏 is not this kind of name, each character contains multiple meanings and it is free to personal interpretations

* 晓 (dawn; daybreak; tell; explain; understand)
* 敏 (nimble; agile; quick; intelligent; clever; smart; preceptive)

The name 晓敏 contains all the meanings above. You can interpret it as 'hopeful (dawn represents hope) and preceptive' or 'clever and have a bright future (daybreak is just the beginning of a bright day)'

The interpretation has to be within logic, I don't think to interpret 晓敏 as 'understand nimble' is reasonable

Don't think too much, it just a common name.
