Yves Origin and Meaning
The name Yves is a boy's name of French origin meaning "yew wood".
On paper, with its stylish ties to fashion legend Yves Saint-Laurent (born Henri), Yves looks great, but the pronunciation--EVE-- could lead to gender confusion. German variation Ivo might be cooler and clear up the issue.
