Trent

This strong single-syllable boy's name has been finding favor with parents since the fifties, and is still at Number 373. Its main associations have been with the River Trent, whose name dates back to prehistoric times, and with long-serving Mississippi Senator Trent (born Chester) Lott, and Trent Reznor (born Michael) of Nine Inch Nails.

In the eighteenth century, William Trent founded a settlement, which became the city known as Trenton (Trent's town), and that morphed into a first name for boys, which now ranks at Number 216.

(James) Trent Olson is the only brother of the three Olson sisters; Trent Ford has been seen on "Gosford Park," "The West Wing" and "Vampire Diaries." And the name of the Vince Vaughn character in the 1996 movie "Swingers" is Trent.
