| The surname Evans and its variants Evans, Evins, Heaven and Heavens mean "son of Evan" or "Evan’s (son)", the final representing the genitive or possessive case. Evan, in turn, is the Welsh form of the personal name John derived through Latin Johannes from Hebrew Johonon "Jehovah has Favored". John was one of the most common Jewish names and was popular in Christain biblical names. | |
