Antwann Origin and Meaning

The name Antwann is a boy's name.

Antwann is a variant spelling of Antoine/Antwan, names derived from the Latin 'Antonius' (Anthony in English). The double 'n' represents a distinctive spelling variation that emerged in English-speaking contexts. The original name Antoine is the French form of Anthony, which ultimately derives from the Roman family name Antonius of uncertain Etruscan origins. Antwann gained usage primarily in the United States during the late 20th century. The pronunciation typically follows the pattern of Antwan (an-TWAHN), with the spelling variation not substantially changing how the name is spoken. This spelling variant exhibits the linguistic phenomenon of personalized orthography, where traditional names are given unique spellings while maintaining their phonetic integrity. Usage remains relatively uncommon compared to more standard forms.
