Sven

Meaning of Sven

Sven is an Old Norse gem meaning “young man.” It sounds crisp and friendly when spoken (svayn). He arrives with the energy of a dawn breeze over the fjords. In the US, around fifty little Svens join each year, keeping the name steady in the mid-800s of popularity. There’s a wink of Viking adventure in its DNA. It pairs beautifully with Latin pasión, blending strength with corazón. It’s as cool as a Viking sail on a warm sea. Parents choose it for its promise of youth, light, and a life full of luz y alegría.
