Urian

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Urian is a Celtic noble male given name (also Urien, Uryen, Uren, presumably derived from British Urbgen). It is recorded in 1273 in the Hundred Rolls of Huntingdonshire in a reference to a "John, son of Urian". In the 12th century, Geoffrey of Monmouth used the Latinized form Urbianus for the semi-legendary British king Urien.

In the modern period, Urian also occurs as a surname.[citation needed]
