Horats Origin and Meaning

The name Horats is a boy's name of Dutch origin.

Horats is a masculine name that appears to be a variant of Horatio or Horace. These names derive from the Latin Horatius, a Roman family name possibly related to the Latin word 'hora' meaning 'hour' or 'time.' Horats maintains the classical dignity of its Roman origins while offering a slightly different phonetic ending. The name carries connotations of literature and education through its association with the Roman poet Horace and Shakespeare's character Horatio in 'Hamlet.' Though uncommon in contemporary use, Horats could appeal to parents interested in classical names with literary connections. The name's distinctive sound sets it apart while still connecting to established naming traditions.
