Ronn
Ronn Origin and Meaning
Ronn is a masculine name that serves as a shorter variant of Ronald, which comes from the Old Norse name Rögnvaldr, meaning 'ruler's advisor' or 'ruler with power.' The distinctive double 'n' spelling gives this traditional name a more modern, streamlined appearance compared to the more common 'Ron.' While never reaching widespread popularity, Ronn gained some recognition in the mid-20th century. The name carries associations of strength and decisiveness while maintaining a certain simplicity. Notable bearers include American actor Ronn Moss, which may have contributed to the name's recognition. Ronn offers parents a brief yet substantial name with historical roots.
