York

York is a boy's name of British origin. With Old English roots, York has been influenced by the Anglo-Saxons and Vikings to become what it is today. At first, York meant "yew tree place," but over time also came to mean “wild boar farmstead.” Steeped in history and culture, the city of York and the county of Yorkshire itself grew from an ancient Roman settlement dating back to 71 CE. Whether you want to honor your ancestral heritage or celebrate a favorite vacation destination, York is a name brimming with charm.
