Kaelan is a gender-neutral name of Irish origin, meaning “slender” and “fair.” This charming appellation is easy on the ears and the lips and makes a handsome tribute to baby’s Irish ancestry. A form of Caelan, Kaelan, comes from Caolán and Caoilfhionn and harkens to a time when Celtic tribes named people by appearance. Originally a masculine title, Kaelan nowadays breaks the binary with its gender fluidity and appealing pronunciation. A name not borne by many, baby Kaelan can express their individuality with this rhythmic title.
