US Popularity:10746
Origin:British
Meaning:Steward, an administrator of an estate that handles domestic concerns, manager
Once an occupational surname, Steward is breaking the boundary as an up-and-coming given name for boys. This lofty appellation derives from the Middle English steuard and was a title given to “an administrator of an estate that handles domestic concerns”—a.k.a. a manager. Lovers of Stewart may prefer Steward for its softer, less abrupt ending that rolls off the tongue with a dignified air.
