Short baby boy names are perfect for the parent who hates nicknames. All parents want cute names for their babies but while some parents love nicknames, there are others who hate them.
Whichever category you belong to, I believe that you should be able to find a name that you love for your baby. That’s why I have created this list of 101 short but strong baby boy names that are perfect for 2020.
If you don’t care about the length of the name, check this list with over 350 baby names for boys and you will surely find one.
These names can be used either as a first name or a middle name and they will sound just as good. I know that some people like to combine a short and long name. Like, if you go for a short first name, you then choose a long middle name or vice versa.

When selecting baby names for this list, I tried to keep it to names that aren’t too common and not weird-sounding.
You will notice that most of them may fall under the category of strong modern baby boy names but there are a few classics that sound fantastic too.
Overall, I really loved these names and hope you find the perfect one for your baby boy.
If you don’t have time to go through the entire list of short baby boy names now, you can save it to Pinterest and have a look at it later.
