Variant of Willis, a patronymic from William, meaning 'resolute protector.'
Willas is a variant of Willis, a patronymic from William, meaning resolute protector. That places it in the long Germanic tradition of names built around will, protection, and steadfastness.
The name feels surname-like, classic, and quietly masculine. Willas has enough familiarity to seem grounded, but enough variation to stand apart from the more common Willis or William forms. It sounds stable and practical, with a traditional core and a lightly individualized finish.
