<p>Lantz is a masculine name that functions primarily as a variant spelling of Lance, which derives from the Old French 'lance' or German 'lanze,' ultimately from Latin 'lancea' meaning 'light spear.' This alternative spelling gives the traditional name a more distinctive, contemporary edge. Lantz originated as a Germanic surname before occasionally transitioning to first-name usage. The name carries medieval associations with knights and chivalry through its connection to lances used in jousting and warfare. While uncommon as a first name, it has seen modest usage particularly in North America during the late 20th century, appealing to parents seeking a name with strong masculine connotations and an unusual spelling.</p>
