"Variant of Eivind"
The name Eivin is commonly a male name from the "Norwegian" origin.
Eivin is a Norwegian masculine name, recorded in Norwegian naming references as a variant of Eivind, the Norwegian form of Old Norse Eivindr. The two forms differ only in the final d and are treated as variants of a single name rather than as separate names. The name belongs to a long-standing Scandinavian naming tradition that predates its appearance in United States birth records.
The pronunciation of Eivin is AY-vin.
