The name Rattler is a boy's name of English origin meaning "rattlesnake; rickety, rattling".

Rattler joins the likes of Wrangler, Thrasher, Stunner, and Gunner as a boy name with a macho, rough-round-the-edges feel and a touch of violence. Associated with rattlesnakes, ricket cars, passenger trains, a Marvel supervillain, a rollercoaster in Texas, a number of sports teams, and a type of pistol, it was chosen by at least one set of parents on social media in 2025.
