“Bo” Names are Booming

From the Irish surname Ó Buadhachanáin, which has at its core <i>buadhach</i>, "victorious". It has appeared in the US charts since 2014, probably in honor of the disco music pioneer Hamilton Bohannon, who was often known simply by his surname. This name therefore ticks several style boxes: an Irish surname, a music legend, and a cool "Bo" sound, with Bo as a possible nickname.
