Llew

If you’re looking for a distinctive name that honors Celtic heritage, Llew is the perfect choice. This Welsh boy’s name is a variation of the name Lleu and means “lion” in the Welsh language. It also was the Welsh form of Lugus, an important Celtic god. Although little is known about Lugus, he had a big following in the Celtic world and had similar attributes to the Roman Mercury, the trickster god. Towns from France and the Netherlands to Great Britain have names that stem from Lugus. Little Llew will surely have the heart of a lion, making you proud as they learn and grow.
