Kort (male)

Variants:Conrad (M) Curt (M) Koenraad (M) Koenrad (M) Kurt (M)
   
Source(s): The Oxford Names Companion, OUP
Notes:

Dutch derivative of Koenrad/Koenraad, the Dutch form of Conrad/Konrad, from Old German "bold counsel".

Kort is now a forename in its own right with the modified meaning "brusque" and hence a variant of the German Kurt and hence Curt.
