Jarritt is English in Origin.

Jarritt is a modern English given name, most likely a phonetic respelling of Jarrett, itself an anglicized surname related to Garrett. The lineage reaches back to the Norman introduction of the Germanic personal names Gerard and Gerald, formed from the elements ger “spear” and hard “brave, strong,” giving the meaning “spear-strong” or “brave with the spear.”

As a given name, Jarritt is rare, appearing in late 20th-century American records alongside the rise of Jarrett and Jared, while the surname Jarrett is attested in medieval England. The -itt ending lends a contemporary, distinctive look yet keeps the same pronunciation: JAR-it. Common variants include Jarrett, Jarett, Jarret, Jarratt, and Jarrit; related forms and cognates include Garrett, Gerard, and Gerald. Appealing to parents who favor rugged, surname-style choices, Jarritt offers an uncommon twist that carries a centuries-old Germanic martial meaning into modern use.
