About Cynan

A Welsh cognate (or variant) of the more familiar Conan, this form has been historically borne by a number of Welsh kings and princes and was the bardic name of the 19th-century Welsh poet, Albert Evans-Jones. Given to a small handful of boys most years in Wales, a more recent bearer is writer Cynan Jones.

Like Conan, it has a charming yet tough meaning of "little wolf".

Pronounced KUN-uhn.
