Meaning:
Ireland
An Irish name doesn’t get more Irish than Erin, which literally means “Ireland!” A top 100 contender on the popularity charts from the early 1970s until 2005, Erin may have lost some of her rating steam in recent times but she has lost none of her charm. She’ll always evoke friendliness, honesty, and pride in her heritage. As the old Irish saying goes, Erin go bragh! (“Ireland forever”).
