The tradition went that the name "Bouvron" derived from the word bovus (ox; cf French: boeuf) because Bouvron was anciently reputed for its fair for the trade of young oxen. and the merchants of these animals were known as the bouverons. But the name Boveron or Bouveron appeared in the texts only from the 12th century onwards, whereas in one text dated 8 May 878 from the cartulary of Redon Abbey, the name Buluuron is used for the estate when it was granted to the abbey, in Redon, Ille-et-Vilaine. An etymological study reveals that "Buluuron" is derived from the Gallic bébronnos, made up of bébros (= "beaver") and onnos (= "river").
