What does Logan mean?
/ˈloʊɡən/2 syllablesOrigin: a surname

Logan began as a Scottish surname and place name, built from a Gaelic word related to 'lag,' meaning a little hollow or dip in the land. It's the source of numerous place names across Scotland before becoming a popular given name in North America.

Logan has a grounded, outdoorsy sound well suited to a pet who loves to explore every nook of the yard or trail. It's approachable and a little rugged, like the landscape it's named for.
