Hudson: Boys Baby Name Meaning

Hudson Baby Name

The name Hudson means ‘hug’ or ‘hardy’.

The name Hudson is the transferred use of an Anglo-Scottish surname originating from a medieval personal name ‘Hudde’ which has three possible origins.

One, it’s widely thought to be a pet form of the Old Saxon name Hugh which comes from a Germanic word ‘hug’ meaning ‘heart, mind, spirit’.

Secondly, Hudde is also thought to have formed as a nickname for Richard which also has Germanic origins meaning ‘power, strong, hardy.’

Lastly, it could be derived from the Olde English personal name ‘Hūda’ with uncertain origin but which gave its name to places like Huddington in Worcestershire. 

The surname dates back to the 13th century in Scotland and England. Henry Hudson (1580-1611) is probably the most famous of the Hudson name bearers.

He is credited with discovering the ‘North West Passage’ and Hudson Bay in Canada. The Hudson River in New York is also named after Henry Hudson.

Famous people who share the name Hudson:

James Hudson Taylor (British Protestant Christian missionary to China and founder of the China Inland Mission) and Sir Wilmot Hudson Fysh, KBE, DFC (Australian aviator and businessman, founder of the Australian airline company Qantas).
