Tailor is a masculine occupational name derived from the profession of tailoring—creating and altering clothing. While traditionally used as a surname (often spelled Taylor), its use as a first name represents the modern trend of adopting occupational surnames as given names. The spelling variation with 'i' instead of 'y' gives the name a more literal connection to the craft while distinguishing it slightly from the more common Taylor, which has become popular for both boys and girls. Tailor evokes imagery of precision, craftsmanship, and attention to detail. Though less common than Taylor as a first name, Tailor maintains the same approachable, unpretentious quality with a subtle twist in spelling that some parents might find appealing for its uniqueness while remaining familiar and easy to pronounce.
