Trying to find a gender neutral/boy name that has plosive consonants in it (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_consonant)
Currently leaning towards the name Niko, but I'm very open to suggestions Smile

Niko sounds a bit like a sports brand.

I love Niko but I would spell it with a C (don't know if that is a plosive consonant though!

Do all the consonants have to be plosive?

FizzyGreenWater · 12/10/2019 10:23

Definitely Kit (Kester, Christopher) or Nat (Nathaniel) or Zac (Zachary, Zaclobot)
