true crime theme names

  1. Gene
    • Origin:

      Diminutive of Eugene, Greek
    • Meaning:

      "wellborn, noble"
    • Description:

      Like Ray, a formerly funky nickname name that is newly cool. Comedian Amy Schumer used it for her son.
  2. Trace
    • Origin:

      Diminutive of Tracy, word name
    • Meaning:

      "of Thracia; to discover or track down; to copy"
    • Description:

      Undoubtedly inspired by country singer Trace Adkins, Trace is part update on 20th century fave Tracy, and part modern word name. Derived from Tracy, it originated as a Roman name meaning "of Thracia" or as a short form of Teresa; as a word name, it's got something slightly arty about it, but outdoorsy too, along the lines of Hunter, Chase, and Wilder.
  3. Justice
    • Origin:

      English word name
    • Meaning:

      "the quality of being just, impartial, or fair"

It still feels more male than female, perhaps partly due to the classic Roman name Justus, but Justice has become a more common pick for girls in recent years.
