  1. Harley
    • Origin:

      English
    • Meaning:

      "hare clearing"
    • Description:

      You can ride one, you can use it as a baby name – or, as is often the case, both! Harley is currently trending up for girls and down for boys in the US, although it remains predominantly masculine in the UK. A lesser-used -ley ending choice for boys, Harley has a current sound but an old-school biker appeal.

  3. Coryn
    • Description:

      Coryn is a feminine name with multiple possible origins. It may be a variant of Corinne, derived from the Greek name Korinna meaning 'maiden,' or possibly related to the Latin 'corona' meaning 'crown.' Some also consider it a feminine form of Corin, which has Celtic roots meaning 'spear.' Coryn has remained relatively uncommon but has seen modest usage since the late 20th century. The name has a modern, streamlined feel while maintaining connections to classical origins. Its spelling with a 'y' gives it a distinctive appearance compared to variants like Corin or Corrine. The name carries associations with nobility and strength, particularly if connected to 'crown' or 'spear' in its etymology. Coryn offers a compact, two-syllable option that feels contemporary yet substantial.
