Wealthy guardian or prosperous protector
Edwar is a variant of the Old English name Edward. It combines the elements 'ead', meaning wealth or fortune, and 'weard', meaning guard or guardian. While the 'd' is dropped in this specific spelling, it retains the same etymological roots as the classic royal name.
