History & Origin
Jeren most likely varies Jaron or Jaren, names that gained ground in late twentieth-century America. Where Jaron is tied to a Hebrew root for singing or crying out, Jeren may share that meaning, though its clean two-beat sound also fits the era's taste for invented J- names.
It was never common, given to only about twenty boys a year at its high point in the early two-thousands, appearing in scattered years. A boy named Jeren then would be in his early twenties today. The name reads as a fresh, of-the-moment choice whose exact source is best left open.
