Our Top Names

These are some of the top baby names we're considering for a little brother or sister for our son, Luca.

Wolf is a name with a split personality. It can be seen as one of the fierce animal names, like Fox and Bear and Puma, with a touch of the werewolf, or it can be viewed as a quieter, Wolf Blitzer kind of name, fairly common in German (where is pronounced Vulf) and Jewish families, sometimes as a short form of Wolfgang, or even Wolfram or Wolfhart.

 CNN newscaster Blitzer inherited the name from his grandfather. Other Wolfs of note include British screenwriter Wolf Mankowitz, who was instrumental in the early James Bond films, painter Wolf Kahn, and the hero of Jack London's 1904 novel The Sea-Wolf, Wolf Larsen.

 
Despite all it has going for it, Wolf is relatively rare and has never been given to more than 80 babies in a single year. But now that Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott chose it for their infant son, Wolf is primed to climb the charts.

 Spelling variations Wolfe or Woolf push it into surname territory, while nickname Wolfie definitely domesticates it.

Wolf

This powerful old name can actually be traced back to two distinct sources. As an Old German
name, Wolfram (borne by the medieval poet Wolfram von Eschenbach) derives from a combination
of wolf + hraben "raven". 

 As an English name and surname, it is actually a rare masculine
matronymic, deriving from the Old English feminine name Wulfrun ("wolf secret"). 

 
Wolf, along with other wild animal names, like Fox and Bear, is really hotting up lately — Wolfram
could be a great way to get there, while still giving him a formal option on the birth certificate.
