  • Simple, short, and striking—this two-syllable gem packs considerable impact through its efficiency and clarity. The name's brevity becomes its strength, making it impossible to forget and delightfully easy to spell and pronounce. It carries multicultural connections, appearing in various traditions worldwide, which gives it both rootedness and universality. The open vowel sounds create a bright, clear quality that feels optimistic and straightforward. Despite its simplicity, the name maintains sophistication, proving that length doesn't determine elegance. It pairs exceptionally well with longer middle or surnames, providing balance and contrast. For parents who appreciate minimalism and value names that are direct yet beautiful, this offers a refreshing departure from elaborate, multi-syllabic options currently dominating baby name lists.
