Khan
Meaning of Khan
In the vibrant tapestry of global names, Khan unfurls like a crimson banner dancing on desert winds, its single syllable echoing the legacy of ancient rulers like Genghis Khan. From its Turkic and Mongolic roots—where it meant “lord” or “king”—to its modern-day resonance in English as KAHN (/kɑn/) and in Arabic as KHAN (/xɑːn/), this name carries a whisper of epic journeys and singular authority. It might not blaze to the very top of American baby charts—hovering around the 900s—but that under-the-radar cool only adds to its mystique, much like a hidden tango bajo la luna porteña. Warm, bold, and ready to write a saga of its own, Khan beckons parents seeking a name as timeless and spirited as a Latin sonnet.
