Drew

US Popularity Rank: 704

Origin: Welsh

Meaning: Wise; Courageous; Strong

Possibly best known down to former child actress, Drew Barrymore, Drew is a gender-neutral name with Welsh origins. Meaning “wise,” Drew is a lovely choice for your newest little night owl. Drew was also once an alternative to the Greek names Andy or Andrew before becoming a name of its very own, which is where it gets its secondary meaning of "courageous" or "strong." If you’re planning on having your very own Charlie’s Angel or paying homage to a fellow family member called Andy, Drew is a quirky and strong name for any child.
