__NOTOC__ Gatis is a Latvian masculine given name borne by over 5,000 men in Latvia.〔PMLP Database〕 The etymology of the name is disputed. Some of the suggestions include a possible relation to the Latvian word ''gatavs'' ("ready", "mature") . Other versions suggest its possible relation to an old Latvian word "gātis" meaning ''gates'' or ''river source''. Another version suggests that the word is derived from the German name Gotthard. Its name-day is celebrated on 8 January. The name is one of the relatively few surviving names of indigenous origin from among the great number that were revived or introduced during the Latvian National Awakening of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. ==Individuals== The name Gatis may refer to: *Gatis Gūts (born 1976), Latvian bobsleigher *Gatis Jahovičs (born 1984), Latvian basketball player *Gatis Kalniņš (born 1981), Latvian footballer *Gatis Smukulis (born) 1987), Latvian cyclist 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gatis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
