Meaning, origin, history
Kirwin is an uncommon given name of Irish origin, derived from the Irish surname Ó Ciaráin. It means "descendant of Ciarán," which was a popular name among early Irish saints and chieftains. The name has been rarely used as a given name, perhaps due to its traditional association with Irish surnames. Kirwin is more commonly encountered as a family name in Ireland and among the Irish diaspora.
