Carver is a rare yet meaningful English name with an understated sophistication. Originating from a surname, it stems from the Norman French word Caruier, derived from the Gallo-Roman Carrucarius or the Gaulish word Carrum, meaning 'wagon' or 'cart.' Alternatively, it means 'wood craver,' originating from the Middle English kerve 'cut.' The name has seen a resurgence in popularity, partly due to its association with fictional characters in popular culture, such as those in "Stranger Things" and "The Walking Dead." This blend of heritage and modern flair makes Carver a compelling choice for parents seeking a unique yet deeply rooted name.
