What Does the Name Ugene Mean?

Ugene is an English spelling variant of Eugene, a masculine name of Greek origin meaning 'well-born' or 'of good stock.' It comes from Greek Eugenios, a name built on the adjective eugenēs, from eu 'well, good' and genos 'birth, family, stock.' Latin Eugenius represents the Greek name, and the modern English form Eugene came by way of French Eugène. Ugene keeps the same pronunciation and etymology but uses U- in place of Eu-. The literal sense concerns birth and family stock; later explanations sometimes gloss the name as 'noble,' an extended sense rather than a separate etymology.
