Jerrott is English, Germanic in Origin.

Jerrott is a modern English given name, most likely a phonetic respelling of Jarrett or Jerrod, which themselves descend from Garrett. These forms trace back to the Norman-French Gerard and Gerald, Germanic compounds built from ger “spear” and either hard “brave, hardy” or wald “rule.” Accordingly, Jerrott carries the martial sense “brave with the spear” and, by extension, “spear-ruler.”

While the spelling Jerrott is rare and largely contemporary, its roots have been present in Britain since the Middle Ages and in North America since colonial times through the surname-turned-given Jarrett/Garrett and the forenames Jerrold and Gerald. Variant spellings and related forms include Jarrett, Jerrett, Jerrod, Jerrold, Jerritt, Garrett, and Gerrit; cognates appear as Gérard/Géraud (French) and Gearóid (Irish). Nicknames include Jerry and, less commonly, Rott or Rett.
