Walt Name Meaning

Walt, short for Walter, is a boy's name of German origin. Meaning "power of the army" or “leader of the army,” this short and sweet title is sure to inspire a commanding voice. As baby makes that milestone transition from first words, don't be surprised if they skip straight to full-blown sentences!
