      Vision is a member of the new class of spiritual word names, which sometimes reflect the faith or religious beliefs of parents but may only relate to an uplifting meaning. This gender neutral name was give to 13 baby boys in 2021, and 6 girls.

      English surname from Swedish
    • Meaning:

      "son of Gunnar"

      Gunnison, though given to just a few baby boys in recent years, is a name we have our eyes on. With strong surname style and a masculine, tough-guy image, Gunnison could give Jameson a run for its money.

  6. Blues
    • Origin:

      English word name
    • Description:

      While Ivy Blue has made the color a popular choice for girls, Blues — as in the musical style — feels more masculine. We think it has potential as a laid-back name that oozes cool for those wanting to avoid more obvious choices like Indigo or Hendrix.
  7. Rigden
    • Origin:

      English surname
    • Meaning:

      "valley by the stream"
    • Description:

      A cool, unique surname name with debated origins. Some sources say Rigden is a lost habitational name, as evidenced by a significant number of bearers in Kent, England. In this case, Rigden would mean "valley by the stream," from ric, "stream," and denu, "valley." Another theory suggests Ridgen derives from Ricdun, via Ricardun, an Old English pet form of Richard, making this a nice option to subtly honor an ancestral Richard.
