  • Crisp and confident, this three-letter name delivers maximum impact with minimal fuss. It has a bright, open sound that feels inherently optimistic and clear. The name's brevity doesn't diminish its strength; rather, it concentrates power into a tight, memorable package. It crosses generational lines comfortably, feeling neither old-fashioned nor aggressively modern, simply timeless in its straightforward approach. The single syllable makes it exceptionally practical—easy for toddlers to pronounce, simple to spell, quick to write. Yet this efficiency doesn't translate to plainness; the name possesses distinctive character that prevents it from disappearing among longer, more elaborate choices. It's ideal for parents who value substance over embellishment, who understand that true elegance often lies in restraint and clarity.
