About this list
Boho boy names may reference artistic or political heroes, inspirational spiritual qualities, or the natural world. Bohemian boy names might be antique or modern, traditional or invented. But to qualify as bohemian, these boy names, such as Felix and Fox, definitely have an indie feel.
Along with Felix and Fox, other boho boy names in the US Top 1000 include Arlo, August, Bodhi, Kai, Otis, Raphael, Soren, and Wilder. Unique boy names that might appeal because of their boho style include Cormac, Huck, Oak, and Ziggy.
Boho boy names can go in a lot of directions these days. They might be drawn from nature, they might be international names, they might be invented names or names that defy old gender rules.
If your Baby Name DNA type is predominantly Bohemian, this is a list for you.
If you're looking for a bohemian or hippie-style name for your baby boy, consider the following.
