Conner Name Meaning

Meaning of name Connor:

Conner's name is most likely a variant of the Irish name Connor. There are two possible origins for the name - one is Irish Gaelic and one is Anglo-Saxon. The Irish name Connor is derived from the old Gaelic name “Cónchobhar” meaning 'dog-lover' or from “Conaire-” meaning 'dog-noble'. Cónchobhar Mac Nessa was a legendary King of Ulster in Irish mythology. Alternatively, Conner could also be transferred to the use of an originating Anglo-Saxon surname as an occupational name for an inspector of weights and measures. In Middle English, the word “cunnere” 'inspector' means a derivative of “cun (NEN)” means 'to examine'. The name Connor is popular in the United States, England, and Scotland, but in Ireland they opt for the more traditional Irish spelling Conor (with an "n").
