Spartan

If Roman can work, could Spartan be one to consider? Derived from the name of the powerful city state in ancient Greece (also called Lacedaemon), known for its military strength, Spartan is believed to have been taken from the Greek word for rope, inspired by cords that were traditionally laid to show the city's boundaries.

Sharp and smart, Spartan is reminiscent of the aforementioned Roman, but also Spencer, Sutton, Saxon, and Carson.

Pronounced SPAR-tan.

As of October 2026, Spartan ranked #14321 for boys in US births in 2008 SSA.
