Comments and insights on the name Trotter: | Edit

I wanted a name that there was not going to be 3 other boys in his class with the same name and I wanted a newer name to reflect my age and sense of style. My husband and I also wanted to play with initials so that would mean something too. Our favorite NFL team was playing and I noticed one of the players name on his jersey, and I liked it so much I made it his 1st name.

A trotter is a type of horse used for harness racing. It's also what a pig's foot is called when it's used for food.

Tramp and Trotter sound good together, I think. I don't like either names, though.

People most of the time think they are mistaken and hear another name. I have also had several people ask if that is his nickname. I just tell them where I got the name and they know right off the bat that we are Eagles Fans.
