What does Chase mean?
/t͡ʃeɪs/1 syllableOrigin: a surname

Chase started as an English surname for a hunter, from the Old French 'chacier,' meaning to hunt or pursue — the same root behind the everyday word 'chase,' meaning to run after something.

It's an energetic name built for a pet who lives for the thrill of the pursuit, whether that's a ball, a squirrel, or the family cat.
