Revan is a modern unisex name with layered roots. In Persian, ravan means “flowing, lively, soul,” entering Ottoman Turkish as Revân, an epithet for grace and movement; this form sometimes became a given name, especially in Turkey and the Caucasus. The Ottoman-era name for the city of Yerevan was Revan, which further anchored the term in regional usage. In South Asia, Revan can also be read as a clipped form of Revanta/Revanth (from Sanskrit Revanta), a deity-name meaning “prosperous, wealthy,” and by extension “horseman/guardian of horses.”

Contemporary English-language awareness rose sharply after the 2003 video game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, whose protagonist is named Revan; this helped establish it as gender-neutral. Variants and related forms include Revân/Reván, Revanth, Revant, and Revanta; short forms Rev and Reva appear in use. Overall meanings cluster around vitality, spirit, prosperity, and swift movement.
