"pilgrim; one who holds a palm"

Pallmer Origin and Meaning

The name Pallmer is a boy's name.

Pallmer appears to be a variant spelling of Palmer, a surname-turned-first-name with Medieval European origins. Traditionally, the name Palmer referred to a pilgrim who had returned from the Holy Land, often carrying a palm leaf as evidence of their journey. This distinctive spelling with double 'l' is extremely rare as a given name, possibly created to distinguish it from the more common surname or to add visual interest. As a first name, Palmer itself is uncommon, and this variation is even more distinctive. The name carries connotations of spiritual journeying and historical significance. It might appeal to parents seeking a masculine name with unusual spelling but recognizable pronunciation, combining traditional roots with a contemporary twist.
