Gregor

Derived from Greek, Gregor has many variants, including Gregory, Gregorio, and Grégoire. The moniker’s most celebrated claims to fame can be found in literature. For one, Gregor Samsa is the main character who famously turns into an insect in The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka. Yet another fictional character that has mesmerized audiences around the world is Gregor Clegane, nicknamed “The Mountain That Rides” or simply “The Mountain” from A Song of Ice and Fire fantasy novels, which have been adapted for television as Game of Thrones. With the meanings “vigilant” or “watchful,” naming your little one Gregor means to hope they look out for their nearest and dearest.
