        • Meaning:

          "independent, nonconformist"
        • Description:

          If you love the cowboy feel, the surname charm, and the Top Gun association that come with the currently popular Maverick but want to keep hold of the free-spirited and unconventional energy its supposed to signify, then Maverix could be a way to go — for now, at least.
      • Bash
        • Origin:

          Diminutive of Sebastian, word name
        • Meaning:

        • Description:

          Self-assured and playful, Bash is a short form of the popular Sebastian, sharing the same energy as Dash, Colt, and Nash. It could work as a quirky, rough-and-tumble alternative to the more familiar nicknames Seb or Baz, or, for those looking for something unexpected and adventurous, it could be a stand alone choice.
