The name Owen is both a boy's name and a girl's name of Welsh origin meaning "young warrior; well-born”.
Owen was derived from two names—the Welsh Owain and the Celtic Eoghan. Each are connected to Eugene, which ultimately came from the Greek word eugenes, comprised of the elements eu, meaning good, and genes, “born.”
The name Charles is derived from the Old English word “ceorl,” meaning “free man.” The word “ceorl” was used to distinguish a free person from a bondsman or slave (“thew”) and a noble person (“eorl”). I can trace Charles back in my family for six generations and I believe it goes back farther than that. Looks like a little family research time.
For me, however, his name means "perfect" because he is just that.
