If you are a fan of all things magical and mythological, then Elvern is the perfect choice for baby. This masculine moniker is a variation of Elvin or Alvin and has Old English roots. Deriving from the element álfr, Elvern means “elf” or “magical being.” It may also stem from the terms ælf, æðele, or eald, combined with wine, to signify “elf friend,” “noble friend,” or “old friend.” Elvern has a beautiful sound to it, as if it has come straight from a fantasy novel. Playful and mischievous, your little trickster will be a lover of nature, singing, and magic if their pointy-eared namesake is anything to go by.
