Schuyler Origin and Meaning

The name Schuyler is a girl's name of Dutch origin meaning "scholar".

Schuyler, the original Dutch spelling, has been obscured by such phonetic upstarts as Skylar and (for boys) Skyler. We've even seen Skyla. While we can understand how the Schuyler version might cause confusion for English speakers, we can't help preferring it for its authenticity.
