Ciarán (Irish spelling) or Ciaran (Scottish Gaelic spelling)[1][2] is a traditionally male given name of Irish origin. It means "little dark one"[3] or "little dark-haired one", produced by appending a diminutive suffix to ciar ("black", "dark").[4] It is the masculine version of the name Ciara.

The name became common in reference to Ciar, son of Fergus mac Róich,[5] who gave his name to the Ciarraige and County Kerry,[6] and two early Irish saints both counted among the Twelve Apostles of Ireland: Ciarán the Elder and Ciarán the Younger.

It is anglicised in various ways: Ciaran, Kieran, Keiran, Keiron, Keiren, Keerun, Kiran, etc.

The name can also be found in the Irish surname of O'Keiran, meaning "descendant of Ciarán".
