Avian (Шаблон:Lang-ru) is a Russian male first name.[1] It was included into various, often handwritten, church calendars throughout the 17th–19th centuries, but was omitted from the official Synodal Menologium at the end of the 19th century.[2]

It is possibly derived from the Greek word meaning not to live as a falsehood.[1] Alternatively, it is possible that it was used as a name wishing someone long life.[1]
