Meaning & History

From the name of a river that flowed through Aetolia in central Greece, which is of unknown meaning. According to Greek legend, Evenus was the name of a prince who drowned himself in the river and was then transformed into the god of the river.

It coincides with the Latinized form of Breton Even, a cognate of Eoghan. Evenus (996-1040) was a son of Duke Geoffrey I of Brittany and Hawise of Normandy (daughter of Richard I of Normandy).
