Gardnar Origin and Meaning

The name Gardnar is a boy's name.

Gardnar is a masculine name that appears to be a variant spelling of Gardner, which originated as an English occupational surname referring to someone who worked as a gardener or was in charge of gardens on an estate. As a first name, Gardnar represents the trend of using surnames as given names, which became increasingly popular throughout the 20th century. This particular spelling variant with the 'a' instead of 'e' is quite rare, giving the name a distinctive quality. Gardnar has never been widely used, remaining an uncommon choice that suggests associations with nature, cultivation, and growth. The name carries a sophisticated, somewhat preppy quality reminiscent of other surname-derived names like Parker, Carter, or Spencer.
