Kannan (Tamil: கண்ணன்)(Malayalam: കണ്ണൻ)is a Tamil and Malayalam male given name. Due to a Tamil tradition of using patronymic surnames, it may also be a surname for males and females. The name is derived from the Hindu god Krishna, who is offered the epithet of Kannan in Tamil, meaning, "the one who is to be seen".[1]
