US Popularity:16498
Origin:Scottish
Other Origin(s):French
Meaning:Strawberry flowers; Of the forest men
The boy’s name Fraser is of Scottish, Anglo-Norman, and Old French origins, meaning “strawberry flowers“ or “of the forest men.” This charming name was possibly initially famous in the United States thanks to the television show Frasier. But more likely, the renaissance of this handsome name comes from an even more handsome Jamie Fraser from the Outlander series. The epic historical fiction romance ties in Fraser’s near-ancient popularity thanks to the Norman conquest of the British Isles. Other great variations of this name include Frazier.
