Animal Names for Boys

O-ending boy names are on trend, and the Welsh language provides some interesting lesser-used ones...such as Beuno. St Beuno lived in the sixth century, established a monastery in North Wales, and is recorded as having restored several people from the dead. Eleven churches in Britain now bear his name, including several on the ancient pilgrim route to Bardsey Island.

An Arabic name with a strong, positive meaning, used especially by Urdu speakers.

Could be a possible and more modern, namesake for Uncle Neal.

A modern combination of the cool Cy- beginning and -aire ending sounds, given to 22 baby boys in 2022. May also be a creative spelling of Sire.

Most often spelled without the final "e"--unless you're a particular fan of writer Bret.

With roots in both Polish and Low German, Gerik is a blank slate of a name that has never made the charts. It's a possibility as a fresh twist on Eric or Derek.

The Hungarian form of Jasper.
