Evynne
A girl's name of Welsh origin with 48 recorded U.S. births.
Meaning & Origin
Evynne is a two-syllable girl's name with a open, approachable sound — ending on a vowel softens the overall impression. With only 48 recorded U.S. births, it is exceptionally rare — the kind of name most people encounter for the first time when they meet your child.
Evynne is not in the current top 1,000 girl names nationally, making it an uncommon choice — though your state or community may differ.
Evynne is a girl's baby name of Welsh origin, a variant of Evonne or Yvonne, from the Old French and Germanic Yvo meaning 'yew tree' — the yew being a symbol of immortality and resilience in Celtic and Norse cultures.
Yvonne was a popular French name of the 20th century. Evynne gives it a distinctly Welsh visual spelling — the y-influenced vowels and double-n giving it a Celtic character that sits beautifully alongside names like Erynn, Gwynne, and Brynn.
