Cynae is a unique and distinctive given name, originating from Welsh roots. It's derived from the Welsh word 'cwn' which means 'hound', often used to denote swiftness or pursuit. The name Cynae is believed to have been popularized during the Middle Ages, associated with figures in Celtic mythology and Welsh literature. In recent years, it has gained some traction as a modern, unisex option for parents seeking an uncommon yet meaningful name for their child.
"Cynae had consistent popularity with seven births each in 2003 and 2005, followed by a slight dip to five births in 2008, bringing the total number of children named Cynae over these years to nineteen."
