8 Anglo French Baby Names With Meanings

Do you know who Anglo-French people are? When an influx of people, mainly French people arrived in Ireland in 1169, historians were confused about what to call them. Initially, they were termed as Anglo-Normans, Cambro-Norman, or just Norman, but as time passed, they were named Anglo-French, which was arguably the most appropriate term for them.
In the culture of Anglo-French people, kids are given a new first name and a given name that is passed from their fathers’ first name. For instance, if the father is named Maurice FitzPatrick, the son’s surname would be FitzMaurice. Similarly, the son of Gerald FitzMaurice would have the surname FitzGerald. Modern Anglo-French people follow the western practice of first name and surname.
Anglo-French names do not just sound fabulous to ears, but are a delight to speak too. Some names even sound similar to American or English names, which is a boon for parents looking for a name with a global appeal.
