Patric

Patric is a masculine name that serves as a variant spelling of Patrick, which derives from the Latin name Patricius, meaning "nobleman" or "patrician." It has roots in ancient Roman society, where the term referred to a member of the aristocratic class. The name gained widespread popularity through Saint Patrick, the 5th-century missionary who became the patron saint of Ireland. Patric, with its single 'k' spelling, offers a slightly more uncommon and continental European flair compared to the traditional Patrick. While not as widely used as its more conventional counterpart, Patric maintains the strong historical connections and masculine appeal that have made Patrick a perennial favorite across many English-speaking countries.

Patric is also given to girls.

Pronounced PA-trik.
