Boy names that start with H are headed up by Henry, which has been a mainstay of the US Top 100 for almost the entire period since naming records began in 1880.
Along with Henry, other H-starting names for boys in the US Top 300 include Hayden, Hudson, and Hunter. Henry is also the top H name for boys in England and Wales, Harry in Ireland, Harris in Scotland, and Hugo in both France and Spain.
Appealing and unique H names for boys include classics like Harrison and Hayes, heritage picks like Hamish and Hamza, or retro risers like Huck and Hart.
