Kevin Gender masculine Origin Language(s) Irish Word/name Caoimhín Meaning of noble birth Other names Variant form(s) Caoimhín, Kevan, Kevyn Kevin ( ) is the anglicized form of the Irish masculine given name Caoimhín ( Modern Irish: [ˈkiːvʲiːnʲ]; Middle Irish: Caoimhghín [ˈkəiṽʲʝiːnʲ]; Old Irish: Cóemgein [ˈkoiṽʲɣʲinʲ]; Latinized as Coemgenus). It is composed of caomh "dear; noble";[1] Old Irish cóem and -gin ("birth"; Old Irish gein).[2] The variant Kevan is anglicized from Caoimheán, an Irish diminutive form.[3] The feminine version of the name is Caoimhe (anglicised as Keeva or Kweeva).

History

Saint Kevin (d. 618) founded Glendalough abbey in the Kingdom of Leinster in 6th-century Ireland. Canonized in 1903, he is one of the patron saints of the Archdiocese of Dublin. Caomhán of Inisheer, the patron saint of Inisheer, Aran Islands, is properly anglicized Cavan or Kevan, but often also referred to as "Kevin". The name was rarely given before the 20th century.[3] In Ireland an early bearer of the anglicised name was Kevin Izod O'Doherty (1823–1905) a Young Irelander and politician; it gained popularity from the Gaelic revival of the late nineteenth century, with Kevin Barry and Kevin O'Higgins prominent in the Irish revolutionary period. Later it was "widely adopted throughout the English-speaking world",[3] surging in popularity during the 1950s. The sudden rise in popularity may[original research?] be tied to actor Kevin McCarthy, who first became famous with Death of a Salesman (1951). In the United States the name's popularity peaked at rank 11 in 1963. It has steadily decreased in popularity since then, but is still given with moderate frequency, at rank 89 as of 2016.[4] Kevin fell out of the US Top 100 the following year and now ranks at Number 156.[5] The name followed a similar trajectory in the United Kingdom, gaining popularity in the 1950s, peaking in the 1960s, gradually declining in the 1970s to 1980s, and falling out of the top 100 most popularly given names by the 1990s.[6] Oxford's A Dictionary of First Names suggests that anglicized Kevin may have influenced the adoption of Kelvin (in origin a river name) as a modern given name, which peaked in popularity at about the same time, albeit to a much lesser extent (peaking at rank 209 as of 1961 in the US).[7] In non-English-speaking Europe, the name picked up popularity in the 1980s via such American pop culture figures as actor Kevin Costner, singer Kevin Richardson, and, most prominently, Kevin McCallister, Macaulay Culkin's character in the Christmas comedy film Home Alone.[8] "Kevin" was notorious for being extremely popular among lower-class parents during the end of 1980s to 2000s.[8] The name peaked markedly in the early 1990s, reaching first rank in France (sometimes spelt Kévin) during 1989–1994,[8] during 1991–1992 in Switzerland and in 1991 in Germany.[citation needed] In German markets, Home Alone was released as "Kevin – Allein zu Haus".[citation needed] Especially in Germany, the name became associated with low social status, an attitude popularised in German journalism based on a 2009 master thesis on primary teachers' reactions to children's given names.[9] Kevinismus has become German short-hand for negative social preconceptions about trendy or exotic names.[10][11]

What age is considered a long life?

The following year, life expectancy rose back up to the more typical 55. These days, while statistical life expectancy in the U.S. is about 80 years, living well into one's 80s or 90s is a perfectly realistic expectation for many. Even centenarians -- people who are 100 years old or more -- are on the rise.

Laura Bridges celebrated her 100th birthday this month. The year she was born in rural Oglethorpe County, GA, the flu killed an estimated 50 million people worldwide. As a result, U.S. life expectancy that year was just 36 years for a man and 42 for a woman. The following year, life expectancy rose back up to the more typical 55. These days, while statistical life expectancy in the U.S. is about 80 years, living well into one’s 80s or 90s is a perfectly realistic expectation for many. Even centenarians -- people who are 100 years old or more -- are on the rise. In 2015, some 72,000 Americans were centenarians. That’s a whopping 43% increase from just 50,000 in 2000.

As centenarians’ numbers grow, researchers want to know what separates them from those who live the average, expected 80 years. Of course, you can’t underestimate the value of exercise, a good diet, and other healthy choices. But studies show genes are pretty important, too. So do you have to win the genetic lottery to live a whole century? Or can science unlock the secret to spreading the genetic wealth?
