YVAIN. Arthurian.
A knight of the Round Table. A Breton
form of Welsh Owain
(q.v.), meaning "young warrior." (History of Christian
Names, Yonge, 1884).
In his
Chevalier au Lyon, Chretien relates an adventure of Yvain in which he
delivers a lion from a serpent. After his deliverance, the lion
follows Yvain as a faithful companion, bringing him whatever game he
catches in the chase, and giving him aid and protection in his
adventures. (Transactions and Proceedings of the American
Philological Association,
v.32, 1901)
