Gwyn (name)


Gwyn, Gwynn or Gwynne, are given names or surnames meaning "white" or/and "blessed" in Welsh and Cornish.
Gwyn and its variants are male given names, indicated by the spelling using 'y' rather than 'e'. So, whilst 'Gwyn' or 'Gwynne' are male names, 'Gwen' or 'Gwendolen' are female equivalents. 'Gwyneth' can cause confusion, as this is a female name with apparently male spelling, however, this name has a different etymological origin .
