D6 Boys Names

  1. Bandit
    • Origin:

      Word or occupational name
    • Meaning:

      "outlaw, thief"
    • Description:

      We hesitate to call Bandit an occupational name, any more than Rogue or Vandal are occupational names, yet its use by one of the bandmembers of My Chemical Romance (for his daughter: we're thinking only Gerard Way could pull that off) undoubtedly owes a debt to occupational cousins from Pilot to Parker.
  2. Skipper
    • Origin:

      English
    • Meaning:

      "captain"
    • Description:

      Sure, and we hope he has a good time playing with Buster and Buddy.
  3. Crane
    • Origin:

      English surname
    • Meaning:

      "crane"
    • Description:

      This elegant surname has great potential to turn into an unusual first name, especially with its literary associations to both Stephen and Hart Crane.
  4. Caro
    • Origin:

      Italian
    • Meaning:

      "dear"
    • Description:

      The meaning is endearing, but it also feels uncomfortably like a short form for Caroline. Its artistic reference is British sculptor Anthony Caro.
  5. Carbry
    • Origin:

      Irish
    • Meaning:

      "charioteer"
    • Description:

      A name scattered throughout Irish mythology with an intriguing sound, Carbry is one of the rare Irish names for boys virtually unknown in the US. Bry is the obvious, but lovely nickname option.
