Morgan is a Celtic given name traditionally used in Wales, Brittany and Scotland. In the UK and Ireland it is traditionally a male name, though also increasingly used for girls too. In the United States, by contrast, it is more commonly used as a unisex name. It was the 63rd most popular name for girls born in the United States in 2010 and the 518th most popular name for boys born there in 2010. The name is also used for both sexes in other English-speaking countries, including Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. It is also frequently used in Brittany, where it is traditionally a male name. The male and female names may not be the same name in origin. The male name is a descendant of Old Welsh ''Morcant'', possibly derived from ''mor'' (meaning "sea") and ''cant'' (meaning "circle"),〔 with the meaning "sea chief" or "sea defender".〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work = Surname Database )〕 ==People== *King Morcant Bulc *Morgan Brian (born 1993), American soccer player *Morgan Brittany (born 1951), American actress *Morgan of Mar *Morgan Earp *Morgan Featherstone *Morgan Fairchild *Morgan Freeman, actor *Morgan Green *Morgan Jones (disambiguation), several people *Morgan le Fay *Morgan Nicholls *Morgan Philips Price *Morgan Phillips *Morgan Pressel *Morgan Spurlock, documentary maker *Morgan Schneiderlin, footballer *Morgan Tsvangirai *Morgan Webb *Morgan Ward *Morgan (bishop) *Morgan (singer), Italian (real name Marco Castoldi) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Morgan (given name)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
