Howlan

Howlan is a gender-neutral name that comes from the English last name Howland and, by extension, Holland. In Old English, it can translate to “heel land,” “hollow land,” or “hilly land.” A multi-faceted moniker like this can help your little one feel rooted to the earth, no matter where their journey takes them. Howlan may also be an Anglicized form of the Irish Húilín, meaning “son of little Hugh.” If there’s a Hugh in your family—past or present—that you want to pay homage to, Howlan can make for a subtle, timeless choice.
