<p>Milford is a masculine name of English origin, derived from a place name meaning 'mill by the ford' - referring to a river crossing near a mill. This toponymic name follows the tradition of English place names becoming personal names, which was particularly common in the 18th and 19th centuries. Milford saw modest popularity in the United States during the early 20th century but has declined significantly since the 1930s. The name carries a dignified, somewhat old-fashioned character that evokes rural English landscapes and traditional values. While now considered rare, Milford might appeal to parents seeking a vintage name with Anglo-Saxon roots and a connection to the natural world.</p>
