Zayan Origin and Meaning
The name Zayan is a boy's name meaning "handsome, beautifier".
Traditionally spelled as Zayyan, this concise spelling variant is more popular in the English speaking world. Similar in sound and in meaning to the popular, international-feeling Zayn, it ranks in the Top 300 in the UK and in France.
A unisex name in Arabic, it describes someone who makes improvements to the world or who makes things more beautiful. In the West, however, it is used predominantly on boys. The name has been steadily climbing the US charts since the early 2010s, and is now given to around 190 boys each year.
