Origin: Welsh
Meaning: God is gracious; good messenger
Born from the Welsh Iefan, Evyn is a gender-neutral name cast upon those with an open heart and compassionate nature. Related closely to Evan, Evyn is an unusual take on the long-established John and shares its meaning "God is gracious." However, Evyn bears a distinctive mythological quality that may place in the orbit of the Ancient Greek name Evangelo, earning it the favorable meaning "good messenger." Across its varying origins, Evyn resembles a conduit for kindness and good deeds—encouraging baby to be much the same.
