Renfrew is a classic masculine Welsh name, meaning "point at the current." The name comes from the Welsh language, but the aforementioned current relates to the River Clyde in Scotland. The rhyn frwd is the point (of the current) at which the River Cart enters the Clyde outside the town. The first recording of the Renfrew name was back in the 12th century when King David I granted land in the Clyde area to Walter Fitz Alan. Your little one will marvel at the idea of having a name steeped in so much history and an icon of Welsh culture.
