Frexspar
Origin:American
Meaning:Eager, bold; Brave; Brisk, lively; To fight; Eager fight; Lively fight
Frexspar is a masculine name of American creation that’s perfect for parents who want to introduce their little one to the Land of Oz. It first popped up in Gregory Maguire’s novel series The Wicked Years, where Frexspar is the name of Elphaba and Nessarose’s father. An original literary creation, Frexspar may have been influenced by a few long-standing words and last names out there. It may come from the North German Freck, meaning “eager,” “bold” or “brave,” or the Middle English word frick meaning “brisk” or “lively.” The second half of Frexspar may come from the English word “spar,” meaning “to fight.” When these elements are blended together, Frexspar can translate to “eager fight” or “lively fight.” The story of Wicked is all about staying true to yourself, sticking to your beliefs, and going against the regime. If you want to instill these same values in baby, a theatre-inspired name like Frexspar can be a great choice.
