Hoc
hoc
Origin:British
Meaning:High meadow
Hoc is a boy's name of Old English origin and likely a nickname and variant of Hockley, meaning "high meadow." Most people will see the name and immediately think of the Latin phrase ad-hoc and assume your little one is quick to improvise. Not only that, but baby gets to avoid any links to the old German word hock, which is the "topographic name for someone living by a hedge."
