Patrin

Patrin is a truly unusual yet easily comprehended choice. In Romani culture, Patrin refers to the signs and markers that were left behind for other travellers to follow. Piles of leaves and grass were often used to mark their way, making this a symbolic name in Romani culture. Ultimately, the name may derive from the Sanskrit pattra meaning "leaf".

Also used as a surname, Patrin is connected to the 18th century botanist, Eugène Patrin.

Pronounced PAT-rin.
