Throughout the world, Hegen (和根 
, 禾根 , Hegen 
) is quite a rare masculine first name. The forename Hegen is characteristic of China, where it is a rare masculine name, Nigeria, where it is a very rare unisex name, and Philippines, where it is a very rare largely male, but infrequently female name. Much less frequently, Hegen is the last name as well as the forename.
