It is believed to have been used by ancient Welsh warriors, symbolizing their bravery and nobility on the battlefield. Today, Elgan remains a proud and unique choice for parents seeking a distinctive yet meaningful name for their sons.
"The name Elgan saw a dip in popularity between 1916 and 1918, with seven babies named Elgan born in the former year and only five in the latter."
