A male given name, form of Curtis.
"Kurt" is a male name of Germanic origin. Sometimes confused with Curt, which is more aptly related to the Anglo-Norman name "Curtis". "Kurt","Cord","Curd","Curtain","Curtains", and "Kort" originated as short forms of Germanic 'Konrad" or "Conrad", depending on geographical usage. Accepted meanings include counselor, advisor, "bold" counselor.
Its name days are November 12 (Sweden) and November 26 (Norway).
Mid-14c., from Latin curtus "(cut) short, shortened, incomplete," from PIE root *sker- (1) "to cut." Sense of "rude" is first recorded 1831. The Latin word was adopted early into most Germanic languages (compare Icelandic korta, German kurz, etc.) and drove out the native words based on Proto-Germanic *skurt-, but English retains short. Related: Curtal.
Short form of Curtis. Means: courteous, polite.
