Royal Names for Boys

An everyday name in France, a charismatic possibility here.

This euphonious Italian Italian name for boys, often associated with the painter Modigliani, makes a recommended creative choice. The Spanish tend to spell it Amadeo.

Variation of Anthony, and more true to the original Latin spelling. The Roman statesman Marcus Antonius is usually known as Mark Antony in English.

One of the most familiar German names, with an upright Prussian image. Friedrich might just have been out for long enough to start coming back in.

A very Christmas-y Christmas baby name, that may avoid the Santa image by instead adopting the alternative spelling Klaus.

Rather formal word name that has been used occasionally over the years, most notably for the autism activist and animal expert Temple Grandin.

Concise and clipped European version of the earnest Ernest.

Ewart has long been extinct as a first name, and the prominent placement of "ew" and "wart" probably has something to do with it. Ewart originated as a Norman form of Edward and an occupational surname name. The surname was related to the Middle English word ewehirde, from the Old English components meaning "ewe" and "herdsman."

If it's royalty you're after, stick with Earl or Prince -- this is too deified.
