Watson Name Meaning

"My dear Watson" certainly has a familiar ring to it. A distinctive English name, Watson also happens to be the title of the well-known and loved partner of Sherlock Holmes. It's no mystery why this duo were two peas in a pod, and we have no doubt that you and baby will be just as close. Watson means "son of Wat," and while that name may not sound familiar, it is actually a shortened form of Walter. If little Watson ever needs to connect with their inner strength, you can remind them that Walter means "power of the army" in German. If you're a fan of classic titles, then Watson could be a fitting choice for your new little sidekick.
