Chosen

English word name

"one who is the object of choice or of divine favor"

Chosen Origin and Meaning

The name Chosen is a boy's name meaning "one who is the object of choice or of divine favor".

Chosen is officially a baby name thanks to Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton, who chose (can't resist) the word as the name of his newborn son.

While it may inspire bad puns, Chosen is actually a pretty good word name: It's got the two-syllable, n-ending sound that is so fashionable for boys' names, plus a positive, affirming meaning. And if Saint and Messiah can be baby names, why not Chosen? And there's no reason it can't also work for girls.
