Origin & Meaning
AI-WrittenDerived from the Irish surname Ó Leannáin, loosely connected to a root meaning sweetheart or lover. It entered American first-name ledgers late in the twentieth century, propelled by the cultural gravity of John Lennon. By the 2010s, it drifted away from rock tribute and settled into the broader category of gentle, two-syllable surname imports.
