Edwuin is of Spanish origin and means "guardian of fortune". It is derived from the Spanish word "eduar", which is itself a form of the Old Germanic name "Eaduuini". This name was borne by several early medieval European rulers, including the 7th-century king of the Visigoths. In some cases, it may also be considered an alternative spelling or variant of the name Eduardo. While not as commonly used today as some other names of Spanish origin, Edwuin remains a unique and distinctive choice for parents seeking a meaningful name for their child.
Edwuin is not a particularly popular name, with only 18 children named Edwuin born over this two-year period.
