    A very popular male first name William is pronounced WIL-yum. It is of Old German origin, and its meaning is "determined protector." For a long time after the Norman conquest in AD 1066, three out of four English boys were given some form of the conqueror's name, William.


    William has remained a royal name in the UK for nearly one thousand years. The firstborn son of the current Prince of Wales is named William.
