Ninnian is a masculine name with Celtic and Scottish origins, derived from the historical Saint Ninian, a 4th-century missionary who introduced Christianity to Scotland. The name may have evolved from the Welsh 'Nynnyaw' or possibly relates to the Latin 'ninus' meaning 'child.' Ninnian carries rich historical significance in British Isles tradition while remaining quite rare in modern usage. Its connection to an important religious figure gives it gravitas and spiritual meaning. The name has a melodic, somewhat lyrical quality that distinguishes it from more common Celtic names. For parents interested in Scottish heritage or early Christian history, Ninnian offers an uncommon choice with authentic historical roots and cultural significance.
