Meaning & History

(male) An ancient Welsh name, indirectly related to Alan, of which it is now generally taken to be the Welsh equivalent. It is borne in the Mabinogi by Alun of Dyfed, a character mentioned in passing several times. It is also a river-name and a regional name in Wales, sometimes spelled Alyn. Alun was adopted as a bardic name by John Blackwell (1797–1840) and became popular as a result of his fame. It is now used increasingly outside Wales as an alternative spelling of Alan.
