Chandlar

Meaning of Chandlar

Imagine the name Chandlar as a gentle amber flame dancing in a summer breeze—warm, inviting, and just a little unexpected. Born from the Old French chandeler (and ultimately the Latin candēla), it once described the humble candle-maker whose glow banished the dusk; today, it shines as a unisex gem, whispered CHAN-dlur (/ˈtʃæn.dlər/) on tongues eager for something rare. In the United States, only a handful of babies—often fewer than twenty each year—have carried this name since the early ’90s, landing it in the 800s and 900s of the popularity charts. That scarcity only deepens its charm, wrapping each bearer in a private halo of individuality and creativity. There’s a Latin corazón to its soft consonants and rhythmic flow, evoking la luz that guides travelers home and sparks stories shared under star-dusted skies. For niña or niño, Chandlar promises a life illuminated by warmth, imagination, and the quiet power of a single, steadfast flame.
