Boy
Brant
Brant is a boy's name meaning "Old English, possibly steep hill or burnt land", drawing on Old English roots. It has cooled since its 1970s peak, though it is still chosen today. As things stand now, it is a distinctive, less common pick. It has quietly persisted through most of the last century of American birth records.
