About this list
While some parents are opting for strong Classic Boy Names and others are choosing Gun and Weapon Baby Names, there has also been a rise in gentler feeling boy names.
These soft names for boys lean more friendly than cutesy, and appear at the Top of the US charts in the forms of Noah, Luca, Rowan, and Asher. They may be unisex, like Palmer, Eden and Remy, and they might be nicknames like Bertie, Albie, and Jem.
Many are nature names, like River and Aspen, connected to the earth and botanicals rather than rugged mountains and rocks. Others convey gentleness through their meanings, such as peaceful Shiloh, sunny Cyrus , and sweet Drury.
They might contain softer letter combinations like em or sh or they might evoke calm and friendliness via their connotations, such as Shepherd and Casper. They range from familiar like Elliott and Jasper to rare like Lylio and Buana.
