Aften is an uncommon feminine name of Scandinavian origin, though it occasionally appears with variant spellings like Afton. In Norwegian and Danish, 'aften' means 'evening' or 'dusk,' giving the name a peaceful, nature-inspired quality. The name gained some recognition in America through the folk song 'Flow Gently, Sweet Afton,' written by Robert Burns about the Afton River in Scotland, which may explain the alternative spelling. As a personal name, Aften remains rare, appealing to parents seeking distinctive names with natural meanings and a gentle sonority. The name carries poetic associations with the tranquil beauty of evening time and reflects Scandinavian naming traditions that often draw inspiration from nature elements.
