Evan Burroughs Fontaine
Evan is both an English and Welsh male given name derived from "Iefan", a Welsh form for the name John. In other languages it could be compared to " Ivan", "Ian", and " Juan"; the name John itself is derived from the ancient Hebrew name Yəhôḥānān, which means "Yahweh is gracious". Evan is also the shortened version of the Greek names "Evangelos" (meaning "good messenger") and "Evander" (meaning "good man"). The name is also sparingly given to women, as with actress Evan Rachel Wood. It may be encountered as a surname, of which Evans is the most common version. Other languages also assign meaning to Evan as a word or name. It is related to the Gaelic word "Eóghan" meaning "youth" or "young warrior", and means "right-handed" in Scots. he, אֶבֶן, even literally means "rock". The old English translation of the name "Evan" could also be interpreted as "Heir of the Earth" or "The King". Popularity The popularity of the name Evan for males in the United States had risen s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
