According to some sources Nolwenn might indeed mean "white lamb" from Celtic "anoan et gwenn" ("agneau et blanc" in French).

There is little to no evidence this name means “white lamb.” While “wenn” means white or pure, the Breton word for lamb is “oan”—not “nol.”

It actually means 'white lamb' in Breton.
