As a given name, Chi is valued for its simplicity, spiritual connotations, and cross-cultural appeal. Despite its brevity, the name carries significant philosophical depth, particularly in Eastern traditions where it represents the fundamental energy of the universe. Chi's simplicity makes it distinctive yet accessible across cultural boundaries.

The name has been borne by numerous royals, artists, and intellectuals across European history, including composer Eduard Strauss and artist Eduard Manet.

Perhaps its most famous bearer is the Puerto Rican musician José Feliciano. The name experienced moderate popularity in Spanish-speaking countries but remains relatively uncommon in English-speaking regions, giving it an exotic appeal. Feliciano has four musical syllables that flow beautifully, making it both distinctive and pleasant to pronounce. The name suggests a positive outlook and sunny disposition, reflecting its literal meaning of happiness and good fortune.

- Gabriel

"God is my strength"Description:
Gabriel has become a biblical favorite, an angelic choice that's lighter and less patriarchal than some of his Old Testament brethren. Derived from the Hebrew name Gavri’el, Gabriel is taken from the elements gever, meaning "strong," and ’el, in reference to God.
- Gilbert
Origin:
GermanMeaning:
"shining pledge"Description:
Considered ultra debonair in the silent-movie era, Gilbert then went through a nerdy phase, a la Gilbert Gottfried. Now though, like Albert and Alfred and Walter and Frank, it could be in for a style revival.
- Hamish
Origin:
Scottish variation of JamesMeaning:
"supplanter"Description:
Just as Seamus/Seumus is Irish for James, Hamish is the Scottish form — one that's not often used here, but still redolent of Olde Scotland. If you're ready to go further than Duncan and Malcolm, out to Laird and Ewan territory, this may be worth consideration. It also sounds just like the Yiddish word for homey.
- Heracles
Description:
Heracles is a masculine name derived from ancient Greek mythology, where Heracles (known as Hercules in Roman mythology) was the son of Zeus and a mortal woman, renowned for his extraordinary strength and heroic adventures. The name combines 'Hera' (the queen of Greek gods) and 'kleos' meaning 'glory,' ironically meaning 'glory of Hera' despite Hera's antagonism toward him in the myths. As a given name, Heracles is exceedingly rare in modern usage but represents ultimate strength, courage, and perseverance. Parents choosing this powerful mythological name often appreciate classical history and may be drawn to its heroic symbolism and timeless narrative of overcoming impossible challenges.
- Isabelle
Origin:
French variation of IsabelMeaning:
"pledged to God"Description:
Isabelle is the French variation of Isabel, which emerged in the Middle ages as an Occitan form of Elizabeth. Medieval queens Isabella of Angoulême and Isabella of France helped popularize the name in the United Kingdom. Isobel is the Scottish version, Isabella the Italian, and Izabel is used in Brazil.
