Black Boys Names is a blog that focuses on the top baby boy names in hip-hop, R&B, and pop. We are all about making sure you know every name that’s out there. If you’re looking for your son to have a cool and unique name, then this blog post is for you!
It’s no secret how much people love their black boys names. Black Boys Names has been around since 2011 because we understand the need for interesting monikers from age 0 to 100+.
Do you know any of these names? If so, congratulations! You’re a die-hard fan who knows what’s up.
14) Zaire: The name is an African country and it means “The land that stretches out.” Pretty cool meaning for the name!
13) Alonzo Jr.: This unique moniker has been around since 1993 because it was the character played by Denzel Washington in Ricochet. It also comes from the Spanish word “alonso” which means ‘eagle.’ There are all kinds of nicknames to go with this too like Zo or Loz. Now if your son does not want to be called those things they can just use their middle initial – A JR for example. That’ll keep the namesake in there but also allow your son to be a little bit more reserved about it.
12) Tariq: Okay, this name is really unique and we can’t say that’s because of Ballers (though maybe?!) – it actually comes from Arabic origins which means ‘Morning Star.’ It was most popular on our list back in 2002 when it ranked at number 233 with 12 boys given the moniker. This year marks its first appearance on our ranking ever!
11) Troyes: The history behind this one goes way back thanks to Troy, an ancient city located near what’s now called Turkey. Its meaning is “to defend” or “focused protection.” That’s pretty neat for such a cool sounding name.
