Owen

Owen is a charming name that has roots in both Welsh and Irish cultures. In Welsh, it's derived from 'Owain,' meaning 'young warrior,' while in Irish, it has connections to the name 'Eoin,' a form of John. Owen has been a staple in English-speaking countries for centuries, bolstered by historical figures such as the Welsh prince Owain Glyndŵr. In more recent years, it's become a popular choice for both boys and girls, finding a balance between traditional and modern appeal. Common nicknames include 'Owie' or simply 'O'.
