Eachann is a masculine given name in the Scottish Gaelic.[1] A similar and possibly related early form of the name was Eachdonn.[2] The name is composed of two elements; the first element is each, meaning "horse". The second element is donn, which has been given two different meanings. One proposed meaning is "brown";[3] another proposed meaning is "lord".[4] The early Gaelic form of the name, Eachdonn, was 'confused' with the Norse Hakon (which is etymologically unrelated).[2]

Eachann has often been Anglicised as Hector (which is also etymologically unrelated to Eachann).[3]

The Scottish Gaelic surname MacEachainn is a patronymic form of the given name (meaning "son of Eachann").[5]
