Boyd Name Meaning, Origin and Popularity

2 Min Read

Boyd is a first name in its own right, even though it is frequently considered to be a surname. B-o-y-d, whose origins lie in Scotland and Ireland, means “yellow” or “blond.” When you consider that the term B-o-y-d is bod in Gaelic, which means the same thing, this definition becomes more consistent with the meaning. If you’re seeking a name that pays tribute to your Gaelic heritage, consider the striking and modern one-syllable Boyd. If your child has beautiful golden hair, it will be much more appropriate!
