A garth is an enclosed quadrangle or yard, especially one surrounded by a cloister (Middle English; Old Norse ''garþr, garðr''; akin to Anglo-Saxon ''geard''). This led to the word being given as a last name to people who worked in or near a garden. 〔http://www.behindthename.com/name/garth〕 Later it came to be used as a first name. *Garth Brooks, top-selling American country music artist *Garth Christian, English nature writer *Garth Crooks, former Stoke City and Tottenham Hotspur footballer *Garth Drabinsky, former Canadian film and theatrical producer and entrepreneur *Garth Ennis, Irish comics writer *Garth Hound, San Francisco based electronic musician *Garth Hudson, Canadian organist for rock group The Band *Garth Jennings, film director in "Hammer & Tongs" team *Graham Douglas "Garth" McKenzie, former Australian and Western Australian cricketer *Garth Nix, Australian fantasy author *Garth Richardson, Music producer *Garth Snow, retired ice hockey goaltender *Hon.
