Eyddwine is a rare, Welsh-influenced spelling of the Old English name Eadwine, better known today as Edwin. It joins ēad “prosperity, good fortune” with wine “friend,” yielding the meaning “prosperous friend” or “friend of wealth.” The name flourished in Anglo-Saxon England and is famously borne by Edwin of Northumbria (d. 633), king and later saint. Usage waned after the Norman Conquest but Edwin resurfaced in Early Modern records and enjoyed a strong 19th‑century revival; Eyddwine appears chiefly in antiquarian, literary, or heritage-minded contexts.

International variants include Edvin (Scandinavian and Slavic), Edvīns (Latvian), and Edvinas (Lithuanian). Short forms are Ed, Eddie, and Ned; Wyn/Wynn is sometimes used.
