Morgain Origin and Meaning

The name Morgain is a girl's name.

Morgain is a feminine name with Celtic origins, representing a variant of Morgan. Traditionally associated with Arthurian legend, where Morgain Le Fay (also known as Morgan) was a powerful enchantress and Arthur's half-sister. The name derives from ancient Welsh elements meaning 'sea-born' or 'sea-circle.' While less common than Morgan, Morgain maintains the mystical and powerful connotations of its root name. The slightly altered spelling gives it a distinctive touch while preserving its connection to Celtic mythology and literature. Though relatively rare in modern usage, it appeals to parents seeking a name with historical depth and magical associations.
