Meaning: Settlement on the River Glyme; Hill town; Cliff, rocky cliff

Clint is a boy’s name of British origin. Commonly derived from the name Clinton and Glympton, the Old English title is originally a place and a last name that has become a unique first name over time. Going off of Clint’s meanings alone, which are “settlement on the River Glyme,” “hill town,” “cliff,” and “rocky cliff,” it’s unusual that it was ever considered for a baby name. However, Clint’s strikingly blunt sound is undeniably attractive, dispelling any apprehensions, and continues to woo parents in the 21st century.
