Piran Origin and Meaning

The name Piran is a boy's name of Irish origin meaning "little dark one".

It may be a longshot – especially since it was given to less than 5 boys in the US in 2021 – but Piran could conceivably be a future Kieran, which is shaping up to being the next Kevin. Piran is the patron saint of miners and of Cornwall.
