Drew is English in Origin.
Drew is an English short form of Andrew, rooted in Greek Andreas from aner/andros, “man, manly, courageous.” In Britain it appears in records from the Middle Ages, especially in Scotland under the influence of Saint Andrew, the national patron. The modern given name also intersects with the medieval Norman personal name Dru/Drogo, source of the English surname Drew, which adds a parallel sense of strength and martial vigor.
As a standalone first name, Drew gained wide currency in the United States and elsewhere in the late 20th century; it is now solidly unisex, boosted by actress Drew Barrymore while remaining common for boys via athletes like Drew Brees. Variants and related forms include Dru, Drue; Andrew, André, Andreas, Andrés, Andrei/Andrey, Anders, András, Aindréas, and Italian Andrea. Core meaning: “manly; brave.”
