Meaning & History

Derived from the Middle Persian adjective rōyēn meaning "brazen", which is ultimately derived from the Middle Persian noun rōy meaning "brass, copper".

Also compare the name Royintan from the Shahnameh, which might possibly have been the inspiration behind the use of Roin as a given name in Georgia.

Known bearers of this name include the Georgian historian Roin Metreveli (b. 1939) and the Georgian soccer player Roin Kvaskhvadze (b. 1989).
