Nimrod?? Dreadful suggestion.The Biblical character was a king who rebelled against God by building the tower of Babel. Nimrod also means idiot in the US so quite an embarrassing name to have if he ever decides to travel there.

Are American names the 'cool' thing? Appear to be from lots of the suggestions.

Maybe Biden would work.

Harris has been in the top fifty in Scotland since 2011, top ten since 2017, and was number 5 last year.

Biden, I think, is a little difficult to pronounce. However, I'd love to see Joe Biden's middle name, Robinette (apparently a family surname via Québec) become a kind of unisex fave.

Ziggy

Oakley

Wren

Can't work out what people mean by "modern"--Ziggy, as in Ziggy Stardust from the glam rock era? Rocky, as in those terrible boxing movies with Stallone? Jude and Levi, as in very very very old Biblical names?

If "modern" is working this way, I'll have to propose Gilgamesh or Achilles or Krishna.

I love Reid and Ryder!

Fantastic lists on here. Thanks so much.

Reid is ok.
Avoid Ryder like the plague - that's the name of the main (annoying and obnoxious) character in Paw Patrol (basically the most popular childrens tv show at the moment - terrible)
