FAQ
How are these meanings sourced?
Meanings and origins reflect commonly cited etymology for each name from standard naming references — some names have disputed or multiple possible origins across cultures and languages, so treat these as a helpful starting point rather than a single definitive source.
How many names are in the list?
This tool draws from a curated list of over 120 well-known names across many origins — English, Hebrew, Greek, Latin, Irish, Norse, and more.
Can I filter by starting letter and gender together?
Yes — set both filters before generating, and results will only include names matching both criteria.
Does this include less common or invented names?
No — this list focuses on well-established, widely recognized names with clear traditional meanings, rather than newly invented or highly unusual spellings.
Which origins are most common in this name list?
Hebrew and Latin are the two largest groups, each represented by roughly a quarter of the list, followed by English and Greek names — see the breakdown above.
Is the list evenly split between boy and girl names?
Yes — the list contains exactly 62 boy names and 62 girl names out of 124 total, so filtering by gender won't skew your results toward one side.
Are Irish names included?
Yes — 7 Irish-origin names are included, such as Liam, Nora, and Declan.
