Manhattan

One of the most famous places in the US, Manhattan is an iconic part of New York City and makes a city-chic name choice for your uptown cool kid. This gender-neutral place-inspired name will suit the little one who lives a fast-paced lifestyle. Native American in origin, Manhattan has two possible roots to explore. The first, Mannahatta, possibly means "island of many hills," while the second /e:nta menahahte:nk/, might mean where one gathers bows. Also having a boozy twist, Manhattan is the name of a classic American cocktail that came to be during the mid-late 1800s. From Wall Street to Fifth Avenue, the streets of Manhattan are where history is made. A name like Manhattan may just inspire your little one to make their own mark on the world.
