Leevan is of Hebrew origin, meaning "boundary stone" or "stone of testimony". It is a unisex name, though it is more commonly used for males. Leevan is composed of two elements: 'leiv' meaning heart, and 'even' meaning stone. The name has not traditionally been widely used, but it has gained some popularity in recent years, particularly in the United States. However, it remains relatively uncommon compared to other names.
Leevan was quite popular as a baby boy's name in 1981 with five recorded births that year, making up the total of five Leevans born in that year overall.
