Boy Names That End in S

  1. Reynolds
    • Origin:

      English from German
    • Meaning:

      "powerful counsel"
    • Description:

      The surname Reynolds derived from the given name Reynold, which was common during the Middle Ages. Reynolds Woodcock was the name of the designer character played by Daniel Day Lewis in Phantom Thread. Reynie is a possible short form.
  2. Orestis
    • Origin:

      Greek
    • Meaning:

      "from the mountain"
    • Description:

      The Greek form of Orestes. An interesting and morally gray character from Greek myth, drama and literature, and a somewhat common name in Greece. It would be a handsome and unexpected choice for anyone with Greek heritage, fans of Greek mythology, or for nature lovers who are inspired by its meaning. Shortened to Ori or Ozzie, it becomes even more usable internationally.
  3. Joses
    • Origin:

      Greek variation of Joseph, Hebrew
    • Meaning:

      "Jehovah increases"
    • Description:

      Greek variation of Joseph used in the New Testament. Joses is one of those names that feels at once novel and familiar, perhaps because it also sounds like Moses. An intriguing option.
  4. Artelus
    • Origin:

      Romani and Latinized form of Arthur, Romani masculine form of Arthelais
    • Meaning:

      "bear"
    • Description:

      An intriguing and rare name with a familiar sound, Artleus has been used by the Romani people as both a Latinized form of Arthur, and as a masculine form of Saint Arthelais, the patron saint of the exiled, the sick, and for kidnap victims. It could appeal to those who want an unusual form of the classic, or those who enjoy Atlas, Atticus, and Artemis.
  5. Barnes
    • Origin:

      English
    • Meaning:

      "someone who lives or works near the barn"
    • Description:

      This is a solid surname choice for people looking for a change from Cooper, Parker and Carson. Australian parents will probably instantly associate this name with famous rock legend Jimmy Barnes, but this has an even older pedigree as a namesake - Barnes Wallis was a UK aviator and inventor, most remembered for designing the Dambuster bomb (a bomb that bounces across water to reach its target) and working on supersonic flight in the 1940s and 50s.
  6. Bas
    • Origin:

      Dutch, diminutive of Bastiaan and Sebastian
    • Meaning:

      "person from the city of Sebastia"
    • Description:

      Bas is a fashionable name in its own right in the Netherlands, where it's been in the Top 10. Used throughout Europe, it may have a future here as a straightforward-but-charming nickname name. Baz is another, similar and more appealing possibility.
  7. Saunders
    • Origin:

      English surname, variation of Alexander, Greek
    • Meaning:

      "defending men"
    • Description:

      With the new fashion in the US for S-ending surname-names, Saunders could see some use.
