Variant of Taggart, from Scottish Gaelic Mac an t-Sagairt meaning 'son of a priest.'
Tagert is a variant of Taggart, from Scottish Gaelic Mac an t-Sagairt, meaning "son of a priest." That gives the name an occupational and clan-style background rooted in Scottish history and language.
It has the weight of a surname that has crossed into given-name use, bringing with it a strong regional identity. In modern use, Tagert feels firm, uncommon, and slightly austere. It has a rugged Scottish texture and a no-nonsense sound that makes it memorable. The altered spelling softens the surname shape just enough to work as a first name, while preserving the heritage and strength of the original form.
