US Popularity Rank: 1226

Origin: British

Meaning: Western town

Westin is a boy’s name of English origin. Literally meaning “western town,” this title began as a last name that became widespread after the 11th-century Norman Conquest of England and derives from the likes of Westen or Weston. In those times, dwellers often took on a last name indicative of the area they were from, in this case, a town in the west. Time has since carried on and the name carried down through generations, now becoming quite popular as a first name. No matter what direction your little one has come from or where they’re headed in life, baby Westin will always remember they’re roots. Who knows, maybe they’ll even trace back their own lineage and uncover something incredible?
