Bowin

US Popularity Rank: 20469

Origin: Welsh

Meaning: Son of Owen; Well born

Bowin is a boy’s name of Welsh origin. An alternative to Bowen, meaning “son of Owen,” it would’ve been more widely spelled as ab-Owen and passed on in ancient times as a patronym. Over centuries, the original has been reinvented, bringing us to a fabulous moniker that’s totally wearable in the modern world. Bowin’s ties to the Latin name Eugene, meaning “well-born,” will give baby something just as brilliant to boast about.
