Westan Origin and Meaning

The name Westan is a boy's name.

Westan is a modern masculine name with Old English origins, related to the word 'west' and potentially developed as a variation of the surname Weston, which means 'western town' or 'from the western settlement.' This uncommon name has a contemporary sound while maintaining historical connections. Westan has gained limited usage in recent years as parents seek distinctive names with familiar sounds but unique spellings. The name evokes images of the setting sun, western frontiers, and exploration. While not broadly popular, Westan appeals to parents desiring a name that sounds strong and distinctive while still being relatively intuitive to pronounce and spell. Its rarity makes it stand out without seeming completely invented.
