The first name William has its origins in the Germanic elements "wil," meaning "will" or "desire," and "helm," meaning "helmet" or "protection," which together convey the meaning of "resolute protector." This name first appeared in the early medieval period, particularly in regions that are now part of modern-day Germany and France, gaining prominence in England after the Norman Conquest in 1066, largely due to William the Conqueror. Historically, those who bore the name were often associated with leadership and nobility, reflecting the protective and determined qualities implied by its meaning.

The name has remained popular throughout history, often associated with notable figures such as kings, writers, and leaders, further solidifying its esteemed status in various societies.
The last name Metzger has its origins in the German-speaking regions of Europe, particularly in Germany and Switzerland, where it is derived from the Middle High German word "metzger," meaning "butcher." This occupational surname was historically given to individuals who worked as butchers, reflecting their trade and the importance of meat processing in medieval society. The name is indicative of the profession's significance, as butchers were essential for providing food and sustenance to communities. Variations of the surname can be found in different cultures and languages, including "Metzger" in German, "Metsger" in Yiddish, and "Metszger" in Hungarian, with some regional dialects influencing pronunciation and spelling. The surname has also spread to other countries, particularly through migration, leading to variations in its form while retaining its occupational roots.
