Meeghin is in Origin.

Meeghin is a modern, phonetic respelling of the widely used Megan/Meghan, a Welsh diminutive of Margaret. Through Margaret, it ultimately derives from Greek Margarites, "pearl," the meaning customarily associated with all Megan-family names. The spelling also echoes Irish Meighan/Meegan traditions - linked to the surname Ó Miadhacháin, often glossed "honorable" or "gentle" - though as a given name Meeghin most often follows the Welsh-Margaret line.

Megan became established in Wales and the West Country, then spread across Britain, Ireland, and North America, surging in popularity from the 1970s through the 1990s; the boom encouraged a flourish of creative variants, among them the rare, distinctive Meeghin, chosen to preserve an "ee" vowel and the soft -gh- look. Related forms include Megan, Meghan, Meagan, Meaghan, Meighan, Meegan, Maegan, Megyn, Meghann, and Meeghan. Short forms such as Meg or Meggie are common.
