With its lofty meaning of “protection through victory” or “victorious protector,” Sigismund sets the stage for baby’s heroic entrance. This masculine name derives from the Old High German Sigimund and has remained a classic throughout northwestern European history. Borne by the Holy Roman Emperor Sigismund, who has a thick repertoire of kingly experience, and King Sigismund I of Poland, baby Sigismund will have some lofty namesakes. Sigismund is also the name of a fan-favorite warrior in the Warhammer 40k gaming series, giving this age-old title a modern revamp for gamer parents seeking something epic.
