Re: Novan, a South(east) Asian masculine given name.
in reply to a message by Dorchadas
several years late, but maybe someone will come across this later like I did. I can't be sure about the origin of the name, but one possibility: it's standard Indonesian naming convention to create a name according to the child's birthday. if I knew somebody Indonesian named Novan, I'd confidently bet they're a scorpio (November). :)
