  5. Redd

    • Description:

      Redd is a masculine name that originated as a nickname for people with red hair or ruddy complexions before evolving into an independent given name.

Redd carries associations with vitality and distinctiveness, often evoking images of strength and individuality. While never extremely common as a first name, it has appeared occasionally throughout the 20th century, sometimes gaining recognition through cultural figures like comedian Redd Foxx. The name has a punchy, concise quality that fits with the trend toward brief, impactful male names. Redd's simplicity belies its strong presence, making it a bold choice with historical roots.
