Efraén
Efraén Origin and Meaning
Efraén appears to be a variant spelling of Efraín, the Spanish form of Ephraim, a biblical name with Hebrew origins meaning 'fruitful' or 'productive.' The name carries rich biblical heritage, referring to the second son of Joseph and one of the tribes of Israel. This variation with the accent mark gives the name a distinctive Spanish or Latin American flavor while maintaining its meaningful roots. Though relatively uncommon in English-speaking countries, Efraén/Efraín has moderate popularity in Spanish-speaking communities, particularly in Mexico and parts of Central America. The name combines ancient tradition with a melodic quality that fits well in contemporary multicultural contexts. Efraén offers parents the appeal of a name with deep historical significance and spiritual connections while remaining distinctive.
