Wynne is a name of Welsh origin, derived from the word "gwyn," which means "white" or "fair." It was originally used as a surname but has since evolved into a given name for both boys and girls. The name Wynne is associated with Wales, particularly in regions where Welsh culture and language have historically been prevalent. In English-speaking countries, it is relatively uncommon, lending it an air of uniqueness and exclusivity.
"Wynne seems to have been a popular name for newborns from the early 20th century onwards, with a significant spike in popularity between 1940 and 1960, and another peak in 1966."
