Medford

Medford is an elusive masculine name whose roots sprout from a British surname. Dating back to the Anglo-Saxon era, Medford is thought to mean “middle farmstead estate” and was used to define people and families from such places. Medford may also be descended from a figure called Matthew, lending the meaning “descendant of Matthew.” Maybe your or an ancestor’s name is Matthew, or you simply love its rural appeal. Regardless, Medford lends a dignified title.
