Meaning: Little battler, warrior; Cane reed

Kane is a boy’s name inspired by the Irish surname Ó Catháin. In Irish traditions, the name means “little battler” or "warrior," which is a great way to describe a plucky baby boy. Also a form of the Norman surname Cane, Kane may refer to a "cane reed" in French, from the Latin canna. A feisty name paired with sweetness and nature makes Kane a glowing choice.
