Gender: Male Meaning of Tucker: "fabric pleater" Origin of Tucker: English occupational name Tucker's Popularity in 2017: #179

The name Tucker is a boy's name of English origin meaning "fabric pleater". Tucker is ranked #179 on our popularity charts and is often added to lists like Popular English Boys' Names and discussed in our forums with posts like "Generation CAF (52)".

From the experts:

Tucker has more spunk than most last-name-first-names, and also a positive, comforting ("Tuck me in, Mommy") feel.

Tucker got something of a preppy image via bow-tied conservative TV commentator Tucker Carlson, and quite the opposite from writer/blogger Tucker Max, author of the #1 best-seller I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell. Tucker Crowe is a character in the Nick Hornby novel Juliet, Naked.
