Ewan Meaning and Origin

Ewan is a classic, strong, and masculine, name that is an underused gem. The name Ewan is a boy’s name meaning “born from the yew tree” and is of Scottish origin.  Ewan is an anglicization of the Scottish Gaelic name, Eòghann which may be derived from the Pictish name, Vuen (or ‘Wen’). Eòghann is a name that was borne by several legendary Irish figures. Alternatively, other sources say may be derived from the Greek Eugene, meaning “well-born.” Ewan or Euan is also a Latin word meaning Bacchus.
