Turing

US Popularity Rank: None

Origin: Gaelic

Meaning: Unknown

The name Turing is most prominently a surname. However, due to the heroic efforts of famous mathematician and codebreaker, Alan Turing, this name will get to live on for centuries to come. Known for his skill during World War II and the sad way his life panned out, this name became a call to action among the LGBTQIA+ community. But, deprived of its association with a man who saved millions, this name is of Gaelic origin and was first found in Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
