Royan is a masculine name of Irish origin, meaning “red-haired” or “red.” It is derived from the Gaelic surname Ó’Ruadháin which means “descendant of the red one,” or the name Ruadh meaning “red.” Alongside Royan, Irish names such as Rowan and Ruaidhrí were used to describe those with red hair, making Royan a befitting moniker for baby with ginger locks.
