Lincoln: Boys Baby Name Meaning

Lincoln Baby Name

The name Lincoln means ‘lake or pool’.

Lincoln is the transferred use of an old English surname with Celtic/Welsh etymological roots. The origin of the surname comes from a place name, specifically the city of Lincoln, county town of Lincolnshire. 

The ancient city of Lincoln was founded by the Celtic people around the 1st century B.C. and called Lindon, a modern adaption of an old Celtic Brythonic word from the more modern Welsh ‘llyn’ meaning ‘lake, pool’. 

As the need for surnames became important in England for taxation purposes, after the Norman Conquest (1066), Lincoln arose as an identifying last name derived from the location name for people from this area. 

As a given name, Lincoln was popularized in the United States in homage to the 16th President, Abraham Lincoln, who led the Union to victory in the Civil War and enforced the emancipation of the slaves.

Famous people who share the name Lincoln:

Lincoln Almond, American politician and attorney; Lincoln Bancroft, American politician; Lincoln Brewster, Christian Recording Artist; Lincoln Cássio de Souza Soares, Brazilian footballer.
