- Source: Gareth (given name)
Gareth is a Welsh masculine given name. The name's popularity in Wales may be as a hypocorism of Geraint, which itself became popular after the famous hero and king of Dumnonia.
The modern name appears in Le Morte d'Arthur by Thomas Malory, in which it belongs to Sir Gareth, a brother of Sir Gawain and one of the Knights of the Round Table. Malory either based the name on Gahariet (a name found in French Arthurian texts) or on the Welsh word gwaredd, meaning 'gentleness'.
