Prestcott

US Popularity Rank: None

Origin: British

Meaning: Priest's cottage

Prestcott is a name traditionally given to boys. Old English in origin, it means “priest’s cottage” and draws its universal appeal from the many people and places called Prescott. While the original Prestcotts were thought to live near a parish, some suggest that the name was also given to religious scholars. Either way, it’s a timeless name baby will love, with an extra 't' for twice the fun and many Nobel laureate namesakes to inspire their potential.
