Waiting for a little boy and looking for a baby name that isn't like everyone else? We've rounded up 25 unique baby names to help you get inspired.
Ace. It's hard to think of a name more associated with winning than Ace. It evokes images of cards, tennis and golf (among other games) and means "one" in Latin.
Alaric means "almighty ruler" and once common among kings, this German name is starting to gain more ground.
Bartholomew. While this name may sound like a mouthful, it is associated with many cute nicknames, including Bart, Tollie, Barley, and Art. Bartholomew was one of the 12 Apostles in the Bible.
Cassius As in boxer Muhammad Ali's birth name, Cassius Clay.
Beaver. This is one of the Gemini twins' names in Greek mythology, which means "pious" in Latin and "beaver" in French.
Cedar. This is one of the less widely used “tree” names, and it can be unisex.
Daxton Similar in sound to the popular name Jackson, Daxton is of French origin and means "warrior who overcomes great obstacles." Shorten it to "Dax" (as in Dax Shepard, Kristen Bell's husband) for an adorable but boyish nickname.
Finnish This is the slightly more formal cousin of “Finn”. Like that name, it is of Irish origin and means "fair."
Gianni The Italian equivalent of "Johnny" oozes European sophistication and means "God is kind."
Hiram For parents who want a biblical name that is adventurous, this is a bold choice. Country music fans take note: Hank Williams' real name is Hiram Williams.
Kai This Hawaiian name, meaning "sea," is a beautiful choice.
Lochlan Another name rooted in both history and nature, Lochlan means "land of lakes" in Scottish and was used to describe the Vikings long ago. An alternate spelling is "Lachlan", and it is increasing in popularity (slowly) in the United States.
Lynx. Like Fox and Wolf, Lynx is a strong, one-syllable animal name for boys, but its advantage is that it isn't that common (yet, anyway).
Marmaduke You may remember Marmaduke as the goofy Great Dane in Sunday's comics, but this name is back in fashion.
Marquise. If you are looking for a name associated with royalty but that is more unique than King, this is for you.
Merritt. If you're a fan of names that end in a double "t" but want something more off the grid than Beckett or Emmett, add Merritt to your list of possibilities for your baby. It is an old English, unisex name.
Odin This is one of the trendy Norse god names, and it offers a unique twist on the similar (and more popular) sounding Owen.
Percival Harry Potter fans are surely familiar with this name, which has strong English roots. But did you know that Percival was also the perfectly pure knight of the King Arthur Round Table?
Feather. This unusual baby name is of Gaelic and Celtic origin and is appropriate for a boy born to avid writers and literary types.
Ranger. If you like an active name like Ryder but are looking for a more unusual option, this update of French origin, which means "guardian of the forest," might be suitable for your child.
Rollo Short, quirky names ending in "o" are popular with boys - this is a lighthearted variation on the more common Roland name.
Tower. The rook piece in chess and synonym for "raven" or "raven" is part of the trend for familiar words becoming baby names.
Sutter Sutter is another promising “action” name for boys. While associated with the California Gold Rush, the word comes from Old English and means "cobbler."
Winslow First names continue to grow in popularity, and this is a good choice for your young child. Winslow Homer, the American landscape painter, is one of the most famous men to have him as his first name.
Zephyr. Looking for a name that starts with "Z"? Zephyr has natural origins and means "west wind" in Greek. It is also the name of the mischievous monkey in Babar's children's books. Learn the good things about your baby's due dateBaby Name Finder
