Meanings

A male given name: from a Germanic word meaning “protection.”.

Warren is a common English and Irish surname and a masculine given name derived from the French surname, "de Warenne", a reference to various places named La Varenne and Varennes. The placename is thought to be derived from the Old French warir or garir, from the Proto-Germanic war-, meaning "to protect or defend." Alternately, the derivation could be from the Gaulish word varenna, meaning "enclosed area," related to varros "post.".

Late 14c., "piece of land enclosed for breeding beasts and fowls," from Anglo-French and Old North French warenne (Old French garenne) "game park, hunting reserve," possibly from Gaulish *varenna "enclosed area," related to *varros "post." More likely from the present participle of Old North French warir (Old French garir) "defend, keep," from Proto-Germanic *war- "to protect, guard," from PIE root *wer- (4) "to cover." Later especially "piece of land for breeding of rabbits" (c. 1400), which led to the transferred sense of "cluster of densely populated living spaces" (1640s).

Guard; the game park; dweller at or keeper of a game preserve.
