Origin:French
Other Origin(s):Scandinavian
Meaning:Northman
An iconic province in northern France, Normandy not only sounds beautiful but comes with a wealth of history and culture. While Normandy means “Northman,” it's favored for girls and carries the same warmth as names like Sandy, Mandy, and Norma. This famously French place name has Scandinavian roots, and the term “Norman” was given to the Vikings who inhabited the region from the 9th to the 13th century. You may know of the Norman Conquest of England in 1066, which spread Germanic and French names like William, Harry, and Charles, now quintessentially British and royal. Parents with their hearts set on a melodic place name for their little one will no doubt remember Normandy.
