Meaning:Swan
Swan, meaning "swan," is a modern spin on an ancient name originating in England by way of Saxony, Germany. Swanhild was a name belonging to "the most beautiful of all women" in Germanic mythology, but her tale is one of tragedy. Like a phoenix from the flames, Swan emerged from the story of Swanhild gliding gracefully and majestically. The newest member of your flock will grow up with Birdies, Ravens, and Robins, continuing the beautiful twenty-first-century tradition of bird-inspired names.
