Lennon is a unisex name with Gaelic roots, originating from an Irish surname and later adopted as a given name. The name derives from Leannan, an Old Irish given name, and in its original Gaelic form, Ó Leannáin, it means 'son of Leannáin'. The meaning of Lennon can be traced to two possible origins: Leannan, which means "little cloak" or "lover", and Lonan, a diminutive of Lon, which means "blackbird". The name Lennon has gained popularity not only due to its beautiful meanings but also because of the late star John Lennon from The Beatles.
