Montez is an uncommon feminine name with possible Spanish or French linguistic origins. The name appears to be derived from the surname Montez, which itself comes from the medieval given name 'Monte' or the geographical term meaning 'mountain' or 'mountainous area' in Romance languages. Historically, Montez gained recognition through figures like Lola Montez, the stage name of an Irish-born dancer and actress of the 19th century. Though traditionally more common as a surname, Montez began appearing as a given name in the United States in the mid-20th century. Usage data suggests it has never been particularly widespread but maintains a consistent, if minimal, presence in naming records.
