So what has 2021 taught us when it comes to boy baby names?
The more unique, the better.
For popular baby siteNameberry, Atticus is a top favorite, and it’s not hard to understand why.
Not only is the name indicative of old school academia, but Atticus lends itself nicely to nicknames.
While the character is well known, the name itself is not common.
Can you just imagine a little boy running around, having fun named Finnegan?
Ugh, our parental hearts are just bursting.
If nicknames are your thing, what better pet name is there than Finn?
If unique is what you’re looking for, this is the name to consider.
Another unique baby boy name that we think screams “subtle swag” is the name Edison.
According to theSocial Security Administration, only 0.025% of boys born in 2020 were named Edison.
Lionel
Lionel isreallyup there when it comes to our favorite unique baby names of 2021.
So if Lionel is a name that really vibes with you, you’re in luck!
According toThe Bump, Lionel originates from Latin and means “lion.”
The name would not only be unique, but it’d be a subtle nod to the stars.
Wells
Calling all social justice warriors we have a name for you that won’t disappoint.
Wells means “spring,” which is a lovely association to have with your new baby.
There’s something about it that’s unique, yet familiar.
So if originality is what you’re looking for, Ellis is the option for you.
Jonas
We know what you’re thinking: the Jonas Brothers.
But hear us out Jonas is a really cute and unique name for a baby boy.
Did we mention that the nickname Archie would be up for grabs?
Add this one to your list.
Cue Gray, which should absolutely be given some consideration.
You could also opt for the spelling Grey, if that serves your interests better.
Need we say more?
The sentiment is true for our next option on the list, Fitzgerald.
Penn
Single syllable names hit different.
So what’s made the name popular in 2021?
Either way, the single-syllable name is certainly worth consideration.
How did Badgley get the name, you might ask?
The more you know.
Lennox
Annie.
Two Agatha Christie characters.
What do they all have in common?
As noted byNameberry, Lennox is a great option, and it has a fairly rich history.
And don’t worry, Lennox hasn’t been used solely as a last name, either.
It hasn’t peaked that much.
The “dubbya” that we all refer to is actually the name Walker little fun fact for you.
