What Does the Name Patric Mean?

Patric is a variant spelling of Patrick, a masculine name from the Latin Patricius, meaning "patrician" or "nobleman." Patricius was a Roman family name and a term for a member of the patrician class, the hereditary noble order of ancient Rome; it is related to pater, "father," and patres, "fathers," a word used for Roman senators. The literal sense is "of the patrician class," while the customary English meaning is "nobleman." The spelling Patric keeps the Latin stem Patric- but lacks the final k of Patrick.

Patric Name History & Origins

The Latin name Patricius was used in the Roman world before it became associated with the Christian saint. The most influential bearer was the fifth-century missionary and bishop known in English as Saint Patrick, who called himself Patricius in his writings. He was born in Roman Britain and taken to Ireland as a captive; he later returned as a Christian missionary and became Ireland's patron saint. Through his veneration, the name spread in Ireland as Pádraig, and the English form Patrick became common in Ireland and among Irish communities abroad.

Patric is a variant spelling of Patrick rather than an independent name with a separate origin. It follows the Latin stem Patric- without the final k of the English form, and the spelling is also used in Sweden as a masculine given name. Its history is therefore tied to Patricius and to the Irish and English forms of Patrick, not to a separate root or meaning.
