This alternative spelling may have emerged through regional pronunciation differences or as a unique adaptation. While less common than the standard Vincent, Vinicent maintains the same strong meaning associated with victory and achievement.

  9. Powerful

      "great strength or influential might"

    • Description:

      Nick Cannon and his partner Brittany named their daughter Powerful Queen in 2020, and time will tell if it will be an influential celebrity baby name. Strong word names are a trend among the stars — 2020 alone saw a Sovereign, Honor, Rumble, Epik, and Win — and the best of them filter out into the mainstream. Powerful certainly has potential, but it might do more for Power, which feels more wearable and name-like.
  10. Schleppy

    • Description:

      Schleppy is an unusual masculine name that likely originated as a nickname or colloquial term rather than a traditional given name. It appears to be derived from the Yiddish word 'schlep,' meaning to drag or carry something with difficulty. The name carries a somewhat humorous, self-deprecating quality that suggests someone who is perhaps disheveled or constantly burdened. Extremely rare as a formal given name, Schleppy might be used as an affectionate nickname in families with Jewish heritage or among those familiar with Yiddish expressions. Its informal, distinctive character makes it more likely to be used as a nickname or character name than as a legal given name for children.

      English word name

    • Meaning:

      "without fear"

    • Description:

      Fearless hasn't made it onto the baby name charts yet, but we expect one day soon it will. It's along the same lines as Brave, Courage, and Hero — all of which are established baby names.
  12. Immanuel

    • Origin:

      German variation of Emmanuel

    • Description:

      In the US, Emmanuel has held steady around the Top 200 for a quarter century now, but this variation has dropped off the Top 1000 for three of the past seven years. It was Number 974 in 2016.
  13. Maureese

    • Description:

      Maureese appears to be an uncommon masculine given name with limited documented usage. The name may be a variant spelling of Maurice, which has well-established French and Latin origins derived from the Roman name Mauritius, meaning 'dark-skinned' or 'Moorish.' The spelling variation 'Maureese' could be influenced by phonetic spelling traditions or represent a deliberate modification to create a distinctive version of the name. Maurice has been used across many cultures and countries for centuries, while this specific spelling variation is much more recent and less common. The '-eese' ending creates a different phonetic emphasis than the traditional pronunciation of Maurice. As with many name variations that emerged in the 20th century, Maureese represents the trend of adapting traditional names with alternative spellings. The name remains quite rare in usage records and demographic data.
  14. Benjamé

    • Description:

      Benjamé appears to be a unique variation of Benjamin, likely influenced by French or Spanish naming patterns. While Benjamin comes from Hebrew origins meaning 'son of the right hand' or 'son of the south,' Benjamé offers a distinctive international flair with its accented final syllable. The pronunciation would typically follow ben-zhah-MAY, giving it a sophisticated European sound. This variation remains extremely rare, appealing to parents who appreciate the familiar root name but desire something more unique. Though uncommon in official records, Benjamé fits with contemporary trends of adapting traditional names with creative spellings or international influences. The name carries the same positive associations of its root name while standing apart from the more common Benjamin.
  15. Lorrenzo

    • Description:

      Lorrenzo is a variant spelling of Lorenzo, a masculine name with Italian and Spanish roots. Derived from Latin Laurentius, meaning 'from Laurentum' (an ancient Roman city) or associated with laurel (symbol of victory), the name carries historical significance through figures like Lorenzo de' Medici, the influential Renaissance patron. This particular spelling with double 'r' is uncommon but adds a distinctive touch to the traditional form. While Lorenzo has maintained steady popularity in Italian and Spanish-speaking cultures, Lorrenzo offers a unique alternative that preserves the melodic quality and cultural heritage while standing apart. The name balances masculine strength with artistic flair, appealing to parents seeking a name with Mediterranean warmth, historical depth, and a slightly unconventional spelling that remains recognizable and pronounceable.
  16. Coolidge

    • Description:

Most famously associated with Calvin Coolidge, the 30th President of the United States (1923-1929), the name carries political and historical significance. The surname derives from the Old English phrase 'cūl ecg' meaning 'cool edge' or 'cool ridge,' likely referring to a topographical feature near where early bearers lived. As a given name, Coolidge projects strength, dignity, and American heritage. It follows the trend of using distinguished surnames as first names, appealing to parents seeking unusual names with historical weight. Though rare as a first name, it offers the distinctive nickname option 'Cool' while maintaining formal gravitas in its full form.
  17. Wilfried

    • Description:

      Wilfried is a masculine name of Germanic origin, combining the elements 'wil' meaning 'will' or 'desire' and 'fried' meaning 'peace.'

Wilfried carries an old-world charm and projects strength combined with a peaceful nature. Though relatively uncommon in English-speaking countries, it remains recognizable due to its similarity to Wilfred. The name experienced modest popularity in Europe throughout the 20th century but has become less common for newborns in recent decades. Notable bearers include various European athletes and politicians, which has helped maintain the name's recognition.

      Diminutive of Bartholomew, Hebrew, "son of the earth"

    • Meaning:

      "son of the earth"

    • Description:

      This one may well be an undiscovered choice for many parents - it has a fabulous meaning, a sturdy surname-name appeal that is very on trend right now and several great namesakes including the Bartlett pear and the tome of quotations.
