The baby name Senen is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced SEH-nen (common); Irish Senán: SHEN-awn; Spanish Senén: seh-NEN.
Senen is Egyptian, Galician, Irish, Spanish in Origin.
Senen is a cross-cultural masculine name with several legitimate roots. In the Hispanic sphere it corresponds to Senén, borne by the 3rd‑century martyr paired with Abdon (Santos Abdón y Senén), long venerated in Spain and carried to Latin America and the Philippines; this cult, with a feast on July 30 and strong rural devotion, sustained the name’s use. In Cornwall and Brittany, Sennen/Senen reflects the cult of the Irish St. Senán, which also underlies the Irish given name Senan. In Javanese/Indonesian, Senen literally denotes Monday and can be bestowed for day‑of‑birth.
Meaning depends on origin. As Spanish Senén (from late Latin Sennenus), the etymology is uncertain. Irish Senán derives from Old Irish sen “old” plus diminutive -án, yielding “little old (wise) one.” Documented variants and cognates include Senén (Spanish/Catalan), Sennen (French/Cornish), and Senan/Senán (Irish).
