Boy
Andreas
Andreas means "Greek/German form of Andrew" and comes from Greek, giving it real etymological depth as a boy's name. It has been climbing steadily, peaking most recently in the 2000s. Today, it is on the rarer side without being unusual in the registry. It has quietly persisted through most of the last century of American birth records.
