Meaning & Story

An Old English surname meaning 'bold power' or 'royal ruler,' derived from the elements cyn (royal) and ric (power, ruler).

Kendrick is a name that carries serious weight — both literally and figuratively. It has the rhythm of a rap legend and the pedigree of old English royalty, which makes it an unexpectedly compelling choice for a confident male dog. Pets named Kendrick tend to have a commanding presence, the kind that turns heads at the dog park without even trying. It suits a dog who is equally at home lounging like a king and sprinting like an athlete.
