Devin (name)

The male or female name Devin is pronounced DEV-in. It is of Irish and Gaelic origin, and its meaning is most commonly given as 'bard' or 'poet'. The name may also be spelt ''Devan'', ''Deven'', and rarely ''Devyn''. The name ''Davinia'' may also be a female variant of ''Devin'', though generally considered a variant of ''David''.
==French connotations==

The epithet ''Devyn'' in Old French carried the meaning of 'divine' (''Mod. Fr. divin''). It was given to the highest of kings, as a title conveying the sense of a perfect or flawless being. A descendent of the Latin ''dīvīnus'', Old French ''devin'' ultimately derives from the name of the Proto-Indo-European god Dyēus (q.v.), followed by the Greco-Latin suffix -īnus: thus a combined meaning of 'godlike' or 'godly'.
In Modern French, ''devyn'' refers to a man who divines; a soothsayer (a female soothsayer would be a devineresse). This sense, again, comes from the Latin ''dīvīnus'', while Old French ''devin'' (Godly) has shifted to the modern 'd i v i n' spelling.
Devyn is also of Indian (Hindu) origin meaning "resembling a God"
