Slender, fair, or powerful
Kellen is a name with multiple etymological roots, most notably from the Gaelic 'caol' meaning slender. It is also associated with the Germanic name Kilan, meaning swamp or pond, and sometimes linked to the Irish name Killian. In modern usage, it is often chosen for its soft yet energetic sound.
