Devynn

Meaning of Devynn

Devynn traces its origins to both Irish and English traditions, functioning as a contemporary variant of the Gaelic Devin and recalling the English county of Devon. Recognized as a unisex name, it is equally applied to boys and girls, and the double “n” spelling imparts a deliberate symmetry. Pronounced DEV-in (/ˈdɛvɪn/) in English, the name has held a place in the United States’ top 1,000 since the late 1980s, with its highest point in 2012 at 52 registrations (rank 890) and 15 occurrences (rank 935) in 2024. Its etymology suggests creative or resilient qualities, and despite its modest numerical rank, Devynn maintains a steady presence, quietly defying the volatility of naming trends.
