Wallker Origin and Meaning

The name Wallker is a girl's name.

Wallker is an unusual feminine variation of the more common surname and masculine given name Walker. Traditionally, Walker originated as an English occupational surname for someone who walked or trod on cloth in the process of fulling (cleaning and thickening) it. The doubled 'l' in Wallker represents a unique spelling variation. As a feminine first name, Wallker is exceptionally rare, possibly chosen by parents seeking a distinctive name with a strong, professional sound. The name carries connotations of movement, progress, and independence. This gender-neutral name with a masculine lean represents the modern trend of repurposing surnames and traditionally male names for girls.
