the unique baby name guide by the world's leading experts
BRONX
Gender: M
Origin: Place-name
Rockers Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz put a new baby name on the map when they chose this downscale New York borough name for the son. The Bronx, the place, was named for early Dutch settler Jonas Bronck. Might Bronx be the next Brooklyn? We'd be surprised if it did.
Bronx is being discussed in our message boards:
- People named after something else
- Love it or hate it... my 2nd daughter has a unique name.
- Mennix
- Kindergarten Name Game! Name These Kids!
- THEY JUST WANTED A SMALL FAMILY...
