Koven (KOH-vuhn) is a fresh, modern English name that feels like an invitation to both exploration and belonging. Like a hidden inlet waiting to be discovered, it captures the sheltered calm of a “cove”—where ocean waves murmur softly—and the close-knit spirit of a “coven” (minus any pointy hats)—a gathering bound by loyalty. Since first popping up in U.S. charts in the mid-1990s, Koven has hovered around the high 800s to low 900s, quietly winning parents’ hearts who seek something offbeat yet utterly warm. With its crisp “K-ohh” on the front and a smooth “vuhn” at the end, Koven suggests a boy who will carve his own path with quiet confidence, gather friends wherever he roams, and always find his way back to the ones he loves.
