History & Origin
Ruxin is a rare, modern boys' name that appears in United States records in the early 2010s. Its origin is uncertain: it may be a short form of the Romanian Ruxandra (from Roxana, 'dawn, bright'), or a fresh coinage. It was never common - given to only a couple dozen boys a year - and its history is honestly thin.
