Gavin 
Summary
Gavin is a Celtic male given name.[2][3] It is the Scottish variation of the medieval Welsh name Gawain, meaning "God send" or "white hawk" (or falcon).[4] Sir Gawain was a knight of King Arthur's Round Table. Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is an epic poem connected with King Arthur's Round Table. Gawain beheads the Green Knight who promptly replaces his head and threatens Gawain an identical fate the same time next year. Decapitation figures elsewhere: the Italian name Gavino [5][6][7] is the name of an early Christian martyr (San Gavino, Porto Torres, Sardinia) who was beheaded in 300 AD, his head being thrown in the Mediterranean Sea only later reunited and interred with his body.
