5000+ Boy Names That End in N

  1. Antawn

    • Description:

      Antawn appears to be a variant spelling of Antoine or Antwan, which derive from the Roman name Antonius (Anthony). The name Anthony ultimately comes from the Latin family name Antonius, of uncertain Etruscan origins. The spelling 'Antawn' gained notable visibility through basketball player Antawn Jamison (born 1976), whose name reportedly resulted from a clerical error on his birth certificate (intended to be 'Antwan'). Despite its unintentional origins in that case, this spelling variant has been adopted by others. The name maintains the same approximate pronunciation as Antwan/Antoine (an-TAWN), with a distinctive spelling that sets it apart. This demonstrates how alternative spellings, even those arising accidentally, can become established naming options in their own right.
