According to "A Dictionary of First Names," by Hanks and Hodges, the name Gavin is a masculine name used in Scottish and English. It is of Celtic origin but its derivation is uncertain. The name is very old, being applied to one of the Knights of King Arthur's Round Table, where it is given as Gawain. In French sources, it is written as Gauvain.
