Names That Mean Haired

      French

  2. Kenyon
    • Origin:

      English
    • Meaning:

      "white haired or blond"
    • Description:

  3. Dignan
    • Origin:

      Irish surname
    • Meaning:

      "descendant of the dark haired one"
    • Description:

      An Irish surname — the Anglicized form of O’Duibhgeannáin — that would make a one-of-a-kind first name, unless you count the character in Wes Anderson's first film, Bottle Rocket. For fans of the auteur, perhaps Dignan is a better name for a pet — it may be extra appropriate to use the nickname Diggy.
