Names That Mean Metalworker

  1. Tolliver
    • Origin:

      English and Scottish occupational name
    • Meaning:

      "metalworker"
    • Description:

      If you're tired of Oliver, you might consider this energetic three-syllable surname instead, so you could have a little Tolly instead of an Ollie.
  2. Farrar
    • Origin:

      English occupational name
    • Meaning:

      "blacksmith, metalworker"
    • Description:

      Farrar has two separate origins: an occupational name meaning "smith", and a Scottish river name, from a Pictish word meaning "to wind". Barely ever recorded as a first name, Farrar is a blank slate that fits with the surname style that's popular today.
