Nicholas is a male given name.
Etymology and Origin
The male given name Nicholas is derived from the Greek Νικὀλαος, Nikolaos, a combination of the words for "victory" (nike) and "people" (laos). The name can be understood to mean victory of the people. The name became popular through Saint Nicholas of Myra, the inspiration for Father Christmas (known as Santa Claus in the USA). The normal English version of spelling "Nicholas", using an "h", is derived from one way of transliterating the diacritic on the 'o' of the original Greek word Νικόλαος. It is claimed to have first come into use in the 12th century and to have been firmly established by the time of the Reformation. Nonetheless, the spelling "Nicolas" without "h" is occasionally found in English speaking countries (e.g. Nicolas Cage). Nicholas is the 64th most common male name in the USA, comprising roughly 0.275% of the population, or 33,845 people.
