Edrin is in Origin.

Edrin is a modern given name with uncertain but plausible twin roots. Many link it to the Old English name family beginning with Ed- (from ēad, “wealth, prosperity”), placing Edrin alongside Edwin, Edgar, and Edric and imbuing it with the sense of “prosperity” or “blessed wealth.” Others treat Edrin as a streamlined variant of Adrian, connecting it to Latin Hadrianus, “from Hadria” (an ancient town in northern Italy). Both readings circulate in contemporary usage.

As a given name, Edrin appears rarely in records before the late 20th century and remains uncommon, found in English-speaking countries and the Balkans (notably among Albanian and Kosovar communities), with occasional use in broader European diasporas. Spelling variants and related forms include Edrien, Edrian, Edren, and Edryn; feminine counterparts include Edrina and Edrine. Common nicknames are Ed, Eddie, and Rin, which emphasize its approachable, modern sound.
