Randall is a striking boy’s name that means “wolf shield.” An undeniably badass choice for baby, Randall derives from the Old Norse last name Rondulfr. This family name was brought to England by the Normans, where it became Randwulf or Randulf. In German, rand means “shield” or “rim (of a shield),” while wulf means “wolf”—thus, “wolf shield.” Over the centuries, Randall transitioned to a masculine first name. Not for the faint of heart, Randall will imbue baby with the spirit of a warrior and the courage of a protector.
