Jevan Origin and Meaning

The name Jevan is a boy's name.

Jevan is a masculine name with Welsh origins, derived from the name Ieuan, the Welsh form of John. Its ultimate root is in the Hebrew name Yochanan, meaning "God is gracious." Alternative interpretations suggest it could be related to the Welsh word "ieuanc," meaning "young." Jevan is relatively uncommon but has maintained a consistent presence particularly in Wales and other parts of the United Kingdom. The name has a modern feel despite its traditional roots, with a distinctive sound that sets it apart from more common variations of John. Its brevity and strong consonant sounds give it a contemporary appeal while maintaining cultural connections to Welsh heritage. Jevan might appeal to parents looking for a name with Celtic origins that remains relatively easy to pronounce and spell for English speakers.
