Fortny is a boy's name of Latin and English origin, signifying "strong one." This wonderful name is a variation of Fortney, a title equal in sound and rich in meaning. Both relate to the Fortny family, who migrated to Fordham following the Norman Conquest of 1066. In Old English, the components of Fordham translate to "ford" and "homestead," opening up a world of color, nature, and cultivation for your little one to explore. It also resonates with the Homestead Act of 1862 in the Midwest, which promoted free land ownership for those willing to settle and cultivate. With a name like this, your darling Fortny will have the strength to sow their own beautiful seeds and witness the magic as they grow.
