What is the meaning of the name Porsche ?

The baby name Porsche is a Female name , 1212 syllables long and is pronounced {'english_common': '/pɔːrʃ/ or /pɔrʃ/ ("PORSHE" pronounced as one syllable)', 'german': '/ˈpɔrʃə/ ("POR-shuh", two syllables)'}.

Porsche is German in Origin.

Porsche is a modern English given name pronounced POR-sha, taken from the German surname made famous by the luxury car marque founded by engineer Ferdinand Porsche. As a personal name it reflects late-20th-century brand-inspired naming and carries no traditional given-name meaning in German. Some treat it as a phonetic cousin of Portia/Porcia, the Roman family name used by Shakespeare, whose Latin root Porcius comes from porcus, meaning pig, though that etymology applies only to Portia.

The name appeared in U.S. records in the 1970s and rose modestly in the 1980s-90s, with variants Porsha, Porscha, and Porcha; Portia remains the classical counterpart. Usage skews feminine in English, though unisex in principle, and contemporary associations of speed, luxury, and sleek design shape its image.
