Germanic Baby Names

526 names with meanings: 195 girl names and 331 boy names.

Germanic names are built from old words joined together, such as 'strong' or 'brave' with 'wolf', 'battle' or 'counsel'. This produced many names that describe strength, protection and wisdom.

Many reached English through the Normans and through German and Dutch settlers, so they now feel at home in English, French and other languages.

Origins and meanings are traditional claims and can vary by source.
