Haven

Haven is a name with English origins, meaning 'a position of sanctuary', 'a position of security' and 'a shelter'. In Old English, it is taken from the word 'haefen', which was the word used to describe 'a shelter', 'a port' or 'a harbour'. This was taken from the root word 'haef', which means 'the ocean'. It was originally used to describe a harbour or a safe spot for boats to secure or moor; in the twelfth century it also took on the meaning of 'asylum'. It is also a variant of the name Heaven, which refers to the paradise in the Holy Bible, which is where people go once they pass. Haven Denney was an American pair skater, who won the US Junior Championships in 2012. Another famous Haven was Haven Gilespie, an American composer who is famous for writing 'Santa Claus Is Coming To Town'.
