Laird

Meaning of Laird

Like a kilted lord bursting out of a Scottish mist and dancing under a Latin sun, Laird strides onto the baby-name stage with all the flair of a bygone aristocrat and the warmth of a fiesta amigo. Born from the Scots word for “landowner” or “chieftain,” it carries the echo of castle walls, rolling hills and the promise of steadfast leadership—imagine your little boy crowned as the modern-day señor of his own tiny realm. Though delightfully rare in the U.S. (just six newborns in 2022), Laird grips the heart with old-world gravitas wrapped in playful swagger. It’s a name that rolls off the tongue like a drumbeat in Rio and plants roots as deep as the Highland heather—bold, unforgettable, and utterly suo.
