About Wrenn

Wrenn is a delicate feminine name derived from the Old English word for the small songbird species. Nature-inspired and evocative, Wrenn carries connotations of freedom, lightness, and sweet melody. While traditionally used as a surname, it has gained modest popularity as a first name in recent decades, particularly among parents seeking nature-themed names with an English heritage feel. The distinctive double 'n' ending gives the name a contemporary spelling while maintaining its connection to the bird. Wrenn remains uncommon enough to be distinctive while fitting alongside popular nature names like Wren (the more common single-n spelling), Robin, and Lark. Its short, single-syllable structure makes it appealing for those seeking simplicity with character.

Wrenn is also given to boys, where it ranks #11919 in the US.

Pronounced REN.

As of October 2026, Wrenn ranked #11919 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #8116 in 1987.
