English Names with International Style

English names have traveled to non-English speaking cultures in recent years, moving up the popularity lists in several European countries including France, Germany, and Sweden.

Note that when we say English names, we may include names that technically have their origins in other cultures but that have enjoyed widespread use in the US, the UK, Canada, Australia, and other English-speaking locales for decades.

If you're an international family, you may want a versatile name that will work across many cultures. Or you may be trying to bridge intra-family cultures and origins, which many of these names will do.

Popular English names with international style include Clara, Alice, and Stella for girls, and Felix, Oscar, and Theo for boys. Less common options include Lara and Tess, Alfred and Jonas.
