Kelvys is a masculine name that’s steeped in a bit of mystery and can come from a variety of names around the world. For one, it may stem from the Latvian word kalvis, meaning “blacksmith” or “smith,” instilling in baby the power that comes from turning metal into tools and art. It may also have links to Kelvin, referring to a unit of measurement, or possibly meaning “narrow water,” from the Scottish River Kelvin. There can also be links to the Scottish Kelvey, meaning “rich,” perhaps predicting a prosperous future for your bundle of joy. There may also be connections to the Roman Calvus, meaning “bald,” matching baby’s smooth-headed beginnings. Who knew that such a short name could hold so many origins and meanings?!
