Origin: British

Meaning: Holy man; Dweller by the hollow

Holman is a masculine name of British origin, inspired by a surname whose roots lie in the Anglo-Saxon era of England. This handsome title sports two endearments, like a path diverged in the woods. Holman earns the meaning “holy man” from when it was used as a surname for a priest or friar—ideal for a pious little paladin. Holman also means “dweller by the hollow,” coming in strong with cozy Lord of the Rings vibes. For the answered prayer bringing warmth and joy to your shire, Holman is quite the lovely choice.
