Eadger is a masculine name of Old English origin, representing an archaic spelling variation of Edgar. The name derives from the elements 'ead' meaning 'wealth, fortune' and 'gar' meaning 'spear,' thus conveying the meaning 'wealthy spearman' or 'prosperous warrior.' This spelling with the 'ea' diphthong reflects Anglo-Saxon orthography, giving it a distinctly historical character. Eadger has never been common in modern times, with the standard Edgar remaining the prevalent form. The unusual spelling gives this variation an ancient, almost mythological quality that connects deeply to early English heritage. Despite its rarity, Eadger maintains the strong, assertive character of Edgar with an added layer of historical authenticity.
