Origin: Scottish

Meaning: Spacious fort

A home begins with a family, and with your little Gord in your arms, you have everything you need to build strong foundations. The name Gord is of Scottish origin, tracing its roots back to the Boernician tribe in Berwickshire. Linked to the arrival of the Normans, Gord is said to hail from a town called Gourdon in Saone-et-Loire, France. Alternatively, Gord may come from the Welsh terms gor and din, meaning "spacious fort." Little Gord can transform any homestead, no matter the size, into a castle of cuddles, laughter, and heartwarming memories.
