Spencer

The name Spencer is a boy's name of English origin meaning "house steward, dispenser of provisions". Spencer is a name that has everything: it's both distinguished sounding and accessible, dignified but Spencer Tracy-like friendly. Picked by several celebrities (a couple of times even for a girl), adding up to an enthusiastically recommended choice. As a family surname, Spencer became the middle name of Winston Churchill, and was the maiden name of Princess Diana. The surname version was often spelled Spenser in the past, as in Edmund Spenser, the poet known for The Faerie Queene. The protagonist of Henry James's short story The Jolly Corner" is Spencer Brydon.
