Just ideas for my first boy
  1. Rowan

    • Origin:

      Scottish and Irish

    • Meaning:

      "rowan tree; little redhead"

    • Description:

      With its gentle sounds and earthy vibes, the name Rowan feels like a fusion of different styles. A word name, a surname, and a gender-neutral name, Rowan is rustic but trendy, blending the vibes of both Owen and Oakley.
  2. Milo

    • Origin:

      Latin and Old German

    • Meaning:

      "soldier or merciful"

    • Description:

      Milo is most commonly considered to be Germanic name derived from the Latin word miles, meaning "soldier." However, there is evidence to suggest it also may have independently spawned from the Slavic root milu, meaning "merciful." Milo predates brother name Miles, a variation that evolved when the name immigrated to the British Isles in the Middle Ages. Mylo is an alternate spelling.
  3. Orion

    • Origin:

      Greek

    • Meaning:

      "boundary, limit"

    • Description:

      Orion is a rising star, with both mythical and celestial overtones.
  4. Alden

    • Origin:

      English

    • Meaning:

      "old, wise friend"

    • Description:

      Hot young actor Alden Ehrenreich, the new Han Solo, gives this formerly-stodgy surname name an attractive new image, making it a fresh successor to Aiden or Holden. Before it got this fresh shine, Alden was among the classic Thanksgiving baby names.
  5. Clark

    • Origin:

      English

    • Meaning:

      "scribe, secretary, cleric, scholar, clerk"

    • Description:

      Clark seemed to have been Gone with the Wind, but parents looking for a short, strong boy's name are now beginning to appreciate its cool combination of Gable charm with Superman power.
  6. Bruce

    • Origin:

      Scottish, English, French

    • Meaning:

      "from the brushwood thicket"

    • Description:

      Bruce is a Norman place name made famous by the Scottish king Robert the Bruce, who won Scotland's independence from England in the fourteenth century. Hugely popular in the 40s and 50s, it has since declined in popularity, but nevertheless remains in the US Top 600 and has featured consistently in the latter end of the England and Wales Top 1000 since the 90s.
  7. Neill

    • Description:

      Neill is a masculine name of Irish and Gaelic origin, serving as a variant spelling of Neal or Neil. Its foundation comes from the Gaelic name Niall, meaning 'champion' or 'cloud.' This powerful name has royal connections in Irish history, as many High Kings of Ireland bore the name Niall. The double 'l' spelling offers a distinctive touch to the traditional Neil. While less common than other variants, Neill maintains popularity particularly in Ireland and Scotland. The name conveys strength and victory, making it appealing for parents seeking a name with Celtic heritage. Neill's brevity and straightforward pronunciation continue to attract parents looking for a name that balances traditional roots with contemporary simplicity.
