Jerin

Meaning of Jerin

Pronounced JER-in (/ˈdʒɛrɪn/), Jerin constitutes a contemporary unisex appellation whose etymological roots can be traced to the Old High German element ger, meaning “spear,” conflated with the anglicized Erin, derived from Gaelic Éirinn. As evidenced by United States Social Security Administration records, Jerin has maintained a modest yet consistent presence since the mid-1970s—peaking at rank 648 with six occurrences in 1974 and recording between five and eight annual births (ranks 898 to 938) in the early 2020s—thereby appealing to parents who seek a name that unites historical depth, gender neutrality, and a subtle nod to Anglo-American and Celtic cultural heritage, connoting resilience and adaptability.
