While compiling this list, I learned that "G," as with "F," is a slightly more common first initial for boys than it is for girls. This is slightly surprising, since "g" starts "girl." It is still much rarer than "B" and "D," though. 

What is your favorite "G" name for boys?

Patrick

Before the Middle Ages, a young man underwent enslavement for six years. Afterward, he returned to England. He later became a bishop and converted Ireland to Christianity. That man, after whom the major holiday of March is named, is St. Patrick.  St. Patrick is the earliest known bearer of the anglicization of the Latin Patricius, meaning "nobleman." He has seen usage in Britain, where he was especially popular in Scotland, since the twelfth century. Even though Patrick also became a name in Ireland, the Irish considered him too sacred for use. That might also explain why the name emerged several centuries after the saint's time, even in Britain.  Patrick did not become popular in Ireland until the seventeenth century.

Instead, a timeless classic boys' name must: Have experienced widespread, consistent use and/or roots dating back 500+ years (Alfred and Ira sound too vintage for this list) Translate into multiple languages through variants and/or usage (excluding "timeless" names like Wesley) Be instantly recognizable and, hence, not too obscure (ruling out Barnaby and Enoch) This list is not perfect; you may not agree about all the names below qualifying as classics. What I can say for sure, though, is that these names are all easy to pronounce and have never sharply peaked or plunged: Abel Biblical roots, English-speaking use since Protestant Reformation International variants (i.e. Hebrew Hevel) and usage (i.e. Armenia) Second son of Adam ...
