Fallann is Irish in Origin.

Fallann is a modern spelling of Irish Fallon, from the surname Ó Fallamháin. The name goes back to Old Irish follamhnas, meaning supremacy or leadership, yielding the sense “leader” or “one in authority.” It is sometimes conflated with Fáelán, “little wolf,” a separate Gaelic name whose anglicizations overlap; Fallann, however, most plausibly preserves the leadership meaning.

As a given name, Fallon rose in the late 20th century across the Anglosphere, helped by the TV character Fallon Carrington (Dynasty). The double‑n form suits contemporary style and remains unisex. Variants and near-forms include Fallon, Falon, Fallan, Fallyn, Falynn, and Falyn; related Gaelic names are Fáelán and its anglicizations Phelan and Whelan. Usage remains uncommon in Ireland, the U.S., U.K., and Australia.
