Emogen Origin and Meaning

The name Emogen is a girl's name.

Emogen is a unique feminine name that appears to be a variant of the more common name Imogen. Imogen has Celtic origins and means 'maiden' or 'daughter'. While Imogen has enjoyed modest popularity in the United Kingdom and Australia, the variant Emogen remains quite rare. This uncommon spelling might appeal to parents seeking a distinctive twist on a classical name. Emogen carries the same graceful, literary qualities as Imogen, which gained recognition through Shakespeare's play 'Cymbeline'. The name has a soft, melodic sound with its flowing syllables and gentle ending, making it both elegant and approachable for a contemporary girl.
