              • Bastian
                • Origin:

                  Diminutive of Sebastian, Latin from Greek
                • Meaning:

                  "man of Sebastia"
                • Description:

                  In Spanish cultures, and spelled either Bastian or Bastien, this is a fairly common nickname name. The German fantasy children's book The Neverending Story features a young boy character called Bastian Balthlazar Bux, and it has also been seen in several screen versions.
              • Baxter

                  "baker"
                • Description:

                  An x makes any name cooler, so that Baxter has a bit more pizzazz than the original Baker.

And we can see Bax as a worthy follow-up to Max and Jax.

This contemporary name gained modest recognition in the early 2000s as part of the trend toward names with unusual spellings and powerful meanings. The distinctive 'y' spelling gives the name a unique visual appeal while maintaining its strong phonetic impact. Blayze carries connotations of passion, determination, and dynamic energy, making it appealing to parents seeking a bold, modern choice for their sons. Though still relatively uncommon, the name has gradually increased in usage, particularly in the United States, attracting parents drawn to its combination of familiar sound and unconventional spelling.

Blue is also a starbaby middle name du jour, used for both sexes in different spellings and forms, from John Travolta and Kelly Preston's Ella Bleu to Alicia Silverstone's Bear Blu. Dave 'The Edge' Evans named his daughter Blue Angel back in 1989.

                • Description:

                  If you feel, as many parents do, that Gabby or Gabi is too harsh a short form for the mellifluous name Gabriella, try Brie, Brielle, or Briella.
              • Briar-Rose
                • Byern
                  • Cabe
                    • Origin:

                      Short form of Cabot, Cable, or Cabel
                    • Description:

                      You don't need to choose the longer form of this unusual name to arrive at Cabe, brother of Gabe and Abe. This earthy, unusual, friendly nickname-name was given to a handful of boys last year and can make an intriguing choice. But be warned: It will forever be mistaken, at least at first hearing, for the more familiar Gabe.
                  • Cadyn
                    • Description:

                      Cadyn is a modern masculine name that emerged in the late 20th century as part of the trend toward creative spellings and surname-inspired first names. It likely developed as a variation of Caden, which itself derives from an Irish surname meaning 'spirit of battle' or from the Welsh element 'cad' meaning 'battle.' The distinctive 'y' spelling gives it a contemporary edge while maintaining the strong, crisp sound. Cadyn gained modest popularity in the United States during the early 2000s alongside similar names like Jayden and Aiden. The name conveys a sense of strength and individuality while still feeling familiar due to its phonetic similarity to more established names. Its modern character makes it particularly appealing to parents seeking something current yet substantial.
