Handsome or gentle; possibly a variant of Kevin
Kaven is most likely a modern phonetic variant of the Irish name Kevin (Caoimhín), which means 'handsome' or 'gentle birth.' It may also be used as a creative spelling of the Cornish name Cavan. As a rare choice, it offers a contemporary twist on a traditional Gaelic classic.
