Éanna

Éanna is the modern Irish form of Old Irish Énna, which may derive from the word for bird, én. It was worn by several ancient kings, heroes and saints. Outside of Ireland, it is better known in its anglicized version, Enda, which also has the benefit of a more guessable pronunciation to non-Irish speakers. In its homeland, however, Éanna is rising and entered the Top 100 boy names in 2023.

Pronounced AY-uh-nuh.
