Ederyn is Welsh in Origin.

Ederyn is a modern Welsh-style given name closely related to the medieval Welsh forms Edern and Edeyrn. It appears in early literature and legend - Edern ap Nudd is named among Arthurian warriors - and in scholarship through Edeyrn "Dafod Aur" ("Golden-Tongued"), to whom a 13th-century Welsh grammar is attributed. The underlying etymon is widely taken to be Latin Aeternus, "eternal, everlasting," borrowed into Brittonic and yielding Old Welsh Edern/Edeyrn; the name survives in Welsh saints' place-names such as St Edern on Anglesey and has seen occasional modern revival.

Variants include Edern (standard Welsh), Edeyrn, and Edyrn, with Ederyn functioning as a modernized or ornamental spelling; rare Anglicized shortenings like Edrin also occur. While the principal meaning is "eternal; enduring," some contemporary users associate Ederyn with Welsh aderyn "bird" by folk etymology, encouraging a nature-leaning interpretation. Usage today is uncommon, sometimes unisex, and most concentrated in Wales and among the Welsh diaspora.
