Background Story

Taylor comes from an English surname that originally denoted someone who was a tailor, from Norman French tailleur and ultimately from Latin talio, "to cut". Its modern use as a feminine name may have been influenced by the British-American author Taylor Caldwell (1900-1985). Since 1990 it has been more popular for girls in the United States, and other English-speaking regions have followed suit, except England and Wales, where it is still slightly more popular for boys.
