Caster

Meaning of Caster

Caster is a spirited pick for a baby boy, fusing Old English heritage with a modern twist. Deriving from the Old English ceaster—borrowed from Latin castra, meaning camp or fortress—this name conjures images of stone ramparts and lively villages. Yet it slyly nods to caster wheels, those nifty swivels that keep things rolling and hint at a playful spirit of adventure. Though it hovers just outside the top 900 in the U.S., that rarity only adds to its charm—your little Caster will stand out without feeling over-the-top. It’s a name as sturdy as it is spirited, perfectly poised for the journey ahead.
