What does the name Raven mean?
Raven comes from the name of the bird, says Behind the Name, ultimately from the Old English hræfn. The raven is revered by several Native American peoples of the west coast and is associated with the Norse god Odin. Wikipedia says that, although Raven is given to boys and girls, it is more often a feminine name, and it has been in the US top 1,000 for girls since 1977.
Raven nicknames and other forms
Behind the Name lists Ravenna as a variant, and links Raven with the Old Norse Hrafn and Hrefna, the Germanic Hraban and the Dutch Roan. Rae is an easy short form.
Some famous Ravens
Raven-Symoné, born December 10, 1985, is an American actress, singer and director. Wikipedia says she rose to fame as a child playing Olivia Kendall on The Cosby Show (1989 to 1992), then starred as Raven Baxter in Disney Channel’s That’s So Raven (2003 to 2007), a role she reprised in Raven’s Home (2017 to 2023). She has won five NAACP Image Awards.
Raven through the decades
Raven is a 1990s name. US Social Security data has it at 171st in the 1990s, when more than 18,500 American girls were named Raven. Behind the Name has it 404th for US girls and 444th in England and Wales in 2025.
Did you know?
Britain’s most famous ravens live at the Tower of London. Wikipedia says at least six are kept there, eight in 2025, because of a belief that if they leave, “the Crown will fall and Britain with it.” Legend credits King Charles II with the tradition, though the Tower’s official historian thinks the story is probably a Victorian invention. The birds are looked after daily by the Ravenmaster.

Who is it for and how she can use it
Whether Raven is eight or eighty, a 6" x 9" notebook is a comfortable size: big enough to write in properly, slim enough to carry. The 160 lined pages don’t come with a set layout, so she decides what it’s for. Journal, planner, class notes, recipes, travel log or doodle book all work. And with her name on the cover, nobody will mistake it for theirs.
Why personalized works
Personalized gifts show you thought about the person, not just the occasion. A notebook with Raven on the cover is affordable, useful every day and still feels special. It’s also a safe choice when you’re not sure of someone’s style, because everyone needs somewhere to write things down.
