Elwen

The name Elwen is generally gender neutral, but it does have male and female variants, which are distinguishable by spelling. Elwen is the feminine form, and Elwyn (or Elwin) is the male form. The meaning of Elwen is 'noble friend', but it can also mean 'elf friend'. Some sources say that it is Welsh for 'bright'. It is an old-fashioned name and is not found in everyday use. However, it is unique and sweet and will make a good name, standing out from the rest. It is also an excellent option for those who like names that suggest a noble character or characteristic. Elwen is literally the name to bestow on a son or daughter. The name Elwyn is associated with greatness, thanks to Elwyn Brooks White, the children's author who wrote the wildly successful 'Charlotte's Web', 'Stuart Little', and 'The Trumpet of the Swan'. Then there is Elwyn Ralph Berlekamp, a mathematics and computer science professor who is renowned for contributing to coding theory and inventing the algorithm to factor polynomials. You can also turn to fiction for inspiration. C.S. Lewis (The Narnia series of children's books) wrote a sci-fi/fantasy trilogy called 'The Space Trilogy', and the protagonist in the first two books was named Elwin Ransom.
