What Does the Name Qwynn Mean?
Qwynn is an English-language spelling variant of Quinn, a name of Irish origin. Quinn comes from the Irish surname Ó Cuinn, which means 'descendant of Conn.' Conn is an old Irish personal name usually explained as 'chief' or 'leader,' though some accounts give the sense 'wise.' The literal meaning of Ó Cuinn is genealogical: it identifies a family as the descendants of a man named Conn. The spelling Qwynn does not have a separate Irish or Welsh etymology.
Qwynn Name History & Origins
Quinn developed from the Irish patronymic surname Ó Cuinn. In Irish naming, Ó marked descent from a named ancestor, and the surname was later anglicized as O'Quinn and Quinn. Quinn has also been used as a given name in English-speaking countries. Qwynn is an altered spelling of that given name, using w and y in place of Quinn's u and i; the pronunciation is normally the same. The -wynn ending can look like the Welsh element gwyn, 'white, fair, blessed,' but that element is not part of the name's Irish derivation.
