Croquett Origin and Meaning

The name Croquett is a boy's name.

Croquett is an extremely rare masculine name of uncertain origin, possibly derived from the French culinary term 'croquette,' referring to a small roll of minced food that is breaded and fried. Alternatively, it might be a creative variation of Crockett, an English surname meaning 'from the crooked cottage' that gained recognition through American folk hero Davy Crockett. The unusual spelling with double 't' gives this name a distinctive quality. With virtually no documented usage as a personal name in historical records, Croquett stands as one of the most uncommon name choices available. Its unique sound combines crispness with a touch of French-inspired sophistication, making it an extraordinarily distinctive choice for parents seeking true originality, though its unconventional nature may present practical challenges.
