Lord

Meaning of Lord

The name Lord invites visions of honor and leadership from the very first syllable. It hails from Old English hlāford, the “bread keeper,” and nods to the Latin dominus, the master of his domain—un guiño a las raíces latinas que celebran respeto y poder. Though it’s never crowded the top of the charts, its steady, if modest, showings in U.S. baby-name lists prove that adventurous parents still love its bold, noble ring. Like a compass guiding a ship through dawn’s first light, Lord offers a sense of purpose, dignity and warmth all in one simple word. And hey, it’s a name you don’t hear every day, making it perfect for a little leader ready to carve out his own legend.
