Alder ContinuedChevron - Right
- Sky
Origin:
Nature nameDescription:
Sky is an ambigender nature name that was first legitimized as the character of Sky Masterson in the 1950 musical Guys and Dolls, played in the film version by Marlon Brando. It's a name we appreciate for its clear, wide-open feel, less hippyish than others like Rainbow and Starlight, and makes an appealing middle name possibility.
Sky ContinuedChevron - Right
- Cyan
Origin:
EnglishMeaning:
"greenish blue color"Description:
Cyan is a highly unusual blue-green color name, a classmate of Celadon and Cerulean. It does come with the homey nickname Cy.
Cyan ContinuedChevron - Right
- Leopold
Origin:
GermanMeaning:
"brave people"Description:
This aristocratic, somewhat formal Germanic route to the popular Leo is a royal name: Queen Victoria used it to honor a favorite uncle, King Leopold of Belgium. Though Leopold sounds as if it might be a leonine name, it's not really a relative of such choices as Leon, and Leonard.
Leopold ContinuedChevron - Right
- Quinton
Origin:
English or LatinMeaning:
"queen's manor or fith"Description:
Quinton is among several attractive Q-beginning, n-ending two-syllable names for boys, that also includes Quentin (the most popular iteration) and Quenton. They only suffer from their similarity and possible spelling confusion, ala girls' names Kristin, Kirsten and sisters. Quinton has slipped a bit in the standings over the past few years but remains an appealing choice. Quinton may be a descendant of the Roman family name Quintus, which means fifth, or may also be an English place-name meaning queen's manor or town.
Quinton ContinuedChevron - Right
- Hermes
Origin:
Greek mythology nameMeaning:
"the messenger god"Description:
These days, more people will relate to Hermes -- pronounced ayr-MEZ -- as an upscale brand name like Chanel and Porsche than as a Greek god. Actress Kelly Rutherford took on the challenge when she bestowed the name on her son. Hermes is the god of travel, writing, athletics, and thievery, among many other things.
Hermes ContinuedChevron - Right
- Zen
Origin:
JapaneseMeaning:
"meditation"Description:
A spiritual word name used by actor Zoe Saldana for her son as well as more recently Nick Cannon and Alyssa Scott for their late son. Zen has been trending in recent years along with other spiritual names such as Bodhi and Zion, and recently entered the US Top 1000 for the first time in 2022.
Zen ContinuedChevron - Right
- Iverson
Origin:
Old NorseMeaning:
"Ivar's son"Description:
In the 90s, Michael Jordan inspired thousands of parents around the world to name their babies Jordan. Retired NBA star Allen Iverson hasn't yet had anywhere near that impact, but a respectable 64 baby boys born in 2016 were named Iverson. The "Iv-" beginning does feel distinctive.
Iverson ContinuedChevron - Right
- Thoren
Origin:
Norse and ScandinavianMeaning:
"thunder"Description:
As the mythological Thor morphs into a modern baby name, the variations Thoren and Thorin feel like real possibilities, not just in Scandinavia but around the Western world.
Thoren ContinuedChevron - Right
- Rohan
Origin:
Spelling variation of Rowan or HindiMeaning:
"sandalwood"Description:
From India, but feels like an Irish surname (and can in fact be a variation of Rowan), so a possible cross-cultural choice.
Rohan ContinuedChevron - Right
- Arrow
Origin:
Word nameDescription:
Words are not always easy to translate into baby names, but the implications of being straight and swift lend this one great potential as a name. It also has the popular o-sound ending, which brings it further into the realm of possibility. Rising rock star Aja Volkman pulled a gender switch when she named her daughter Arrow Eve.
Arrow ContinuedChevron - Right
- Booker
Origin:
EnglishMeaning:
"scribe"Description:
Booker would make for a very cool name, for writers, reformers, R & B fans and those wanting to pay tribute to Booker T. Washington.
Booker ContinuedChevron - Right
- Lloyd
Origin:
WelshMeaning:
"gray"Description:
This Welsh surname was taken up as a first in the English-speaking world in the early twentieth century, originally as a nickname for someone gray-haired. The original Welsh name was Llwyd, and pronounced LHOO-eed. Beau Bridges was christened Lloyd after his actor father.
Lloyd ContinuedChevron - Right
- Liev
Origin:
Yiddish variation of LevMeaning:
"heart"Description:
Liev Schreiber's birth name is Isaac Liev, Liev after his mother's favorite Russia author, Leo Tolstoy. Though Liev is increasing in popularity in the secular world thanks to the actor, it originated as a Yiddish diminutive.
Liev ContinuedChevron - Right
- Aldo
Origin:
Italian from GermanMeaning:
"old and wise"Description:
A spirited German name very popular in Italy and occasionally used here, Aldo is one of the unique baby names with international flair. And names that mean wise have an enduring appeal.
Aldo ContinuedChevron - Right
- Ransom
Origin:
EnglishMeaning:
"shield's son"Description:
Ransom may be rakish and handsome, but it carries an unavoidable association with holding someone for ransom. But that kind of bad boy image might be exactly what attracts you to Ransom in the first place. While Ransom feels like a modern appellation ala Breaker or Ranger, it's interesting to note on the popularity chart that it was actually quite popular at the end of the 19th century but fell off the Top 1000 around 1930.
Ransom ContinuedChevron - Right
- Quill
Origin:
Irish, diminutive of Quillan or Quiller; also English word nameDescription:
Quill is a unique possibility for the child of writers -- even if they do use computers rather than pens; could also serve as a rhyming tribute to an ancestor named Gil, Phil, or Bill (or Jill).
Quill ContinuedChevron - Right
- Sulien
Origin:
WelshMeaning:
"sun born"Description:
Said to be the name of the most learned man in ancient Wales, in this country it would be open to mispronunciation, making it rhyme with Julien.
Sulien ContinuedChevron - Right
- Storm
Origin:
Word nameDescription:
Windswept and dramatic, but perhaps asking for trouble. Quite popular in Denmark and Sweden, where it derives from Stromr, which is a fairly common surname. Storm Thorgerson is a famous bearer of the name - he designed iconic album covers for Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, the Cranberries, Anthrax, and Pink Floyd.
Storm ContinuedChevron - Right
- Eben
Origin:
Hebrew, diminutive of EbenezerMeaning:
"stone of help"Description:
Though most parents would shy away from Ebenezer, short form Eben is affable and creative and perfectly able to stand alone; nothing Scroogish about it. This also makes a fresh new spin on the very popular Ethan or Evan.
