Transforming a traditional last name into a first name for baby is the ultimate way to give an old classic a modern, fresh twist. This includes names like Deegan, a boy's name, meaning "black-haired." Deegan stems from the Irish surname Ó Duibhginn, which signifies “descendant of Dubhceann,” with Dubhceann translating to “black-head.” Whether you wish to remember a fond trip to the Emerald Isle or honor your ancestral roots, Deegan may be the title you're looking for! Equally, if your precious little one has raven black hair, Deegan would make a fitting choice.
