Efren

Efren is a Spanish name that is derived from the Greek name Euphronius, which means 'good-hearted' or 'cheerful.' It is a variant of the name Efrain, which is the Spanish form of the Hebrew name Ephraim.

The name Euphronius is composed of the Greek elements 'eu,' meaning 'good,' and 'phren,' meaning 'mind' or 'heart.' This suggests that the name was originally given to someone with a kind and joyful disposition.

Efren is a relatively uncommon name, but it has been used in Spanish-speaking communities for centuries. It is often associated with a sense of positivity and good cheer, reflecting the meaning of its Greek roots.

While Efren is traditionally a masculine name, some parents may consider it a unisex option due to its soft and melodic sound. However, it is generally more commonly used for boys.
