Quenton
Meaning of Quenton
Quenton is a lively twist on the classic Quentin. It comes from the Latin quintus, meaning “fifth,” and carries echoes of Roman festivals under a blazing sky. Medieval French speakers shaped Quintinus into Quentin, and English fans later added a playful “e” to birth Quenton. The name feels like a secret handshake with ancient history, wrapped in a warm breeze. It also celebrates Saint Quentin, a third-century martyr famed for his courage. And for a modern punch, it tips its hat to filmmaker Quentin Tarantino. Though still rare—hovering near the 900th spot in recent U.S. charts—Quenton proves that standing out can be its own adventure. It sparks a sense of story and individuality, lighting a path of tradition with a dash of Latin flair.
