What does Boots mean?
/buts/1 syllable

Boots is simply the plural of "boot," the sturdy footwear that covers the foot and lower leg, a word that entered English from Old French in the medieval period. It's long been used to describe animals with white or light-colored paws that look like they're wearing boots against a darker coat.

Boots is a cheerful, down-to-earth name that's an easy pick for any pet with distinctive white paws standing out against a darker coat.
