Meaning & Origin
Alternative letter-case form of queen (“consort or widow of a king”).
Queen is a girl's and boy's baby name of Old English origin, from the Old English cwēn, meaning 'woman, wife, queen.' As a given name, it is a bold statement of sovereignty and feminine power — a title worn as a first name.
With over 16,000 U.S. births, Queen has a long history as a given name in African American communities, expressing dignity and regal aspiration. It has an undeniable presence — a name that arrives in any room before its bearer does.
