Boone
Boone is one of the advancing herd of lean and lanky cowboy names with a laid-back, backwoods, Western feel--and surprising French roots. It's inevitably linked with legendary frontiersman Daniel, and also with the positive connotations of the word boon.
T.(for Thomas) Boone Pickens is a high-profile business magnate; Boone Carlyle was a fiery character on TV's "Lost."
