Orrin is a baby boy name of Irish and Hebrew origin. Deriving from the Old Irish name Odrán, Orrin or Oran all have a shared meaning of “dun-colored,” “sallow,” “dark-haired,” “brown,” and “a little pale green one.” If baby is an equestrian fan, these characteristics will remind them of horses galloping through a field with their tan shade. It could also be a reminder of a magical forest or the greenery back home with the Hebrew variant Oren, meaning “pine tree.”
