Honor is a primarily feminine given name derived from the word "honor", taken from a Latin root word honos, honoris. It was a virtue name in use by the Puritans.[1] It is still in occasional use in England and Wales but is an extremely rare name in the United States, where it has never ranked among the top 1,000 names for girls or boys.[2]
