About Grenadier
A bold word name, a grenadier refers to a soldier who throws grenades during battles. Originally, when it started being used as a term in the 18th century, it referred to those who threw hand grenades and required soldiers to be robust and physically strong.
Similar in sound to Gideon, Graham, and Greer, and in vibe to Hunter, Navy, Mariner, and Gunnar, it may appeal to those honoring someone in the armed forces. Derived from the French word for "grenade", it is currently a very rare choice.
Pronounced gren-uh-DEER.
