Franchot

Whether celebrating baby’s French ancestry or seeking a unique twist on a renowned classic, Franchot is a handsome choice. Franchot is a Medieval French name for boys and a variant of François, derived from the Latin Franciscus. Meaning “Frenchman” or “belonging to the Franks,” Franchot references the Germanic tribe of the Franks. Its root, frankô, means “javelin” or “spear” in Proto-Germanic, lending a warrior spirit to Franchot’s already courageous chime.
