This choice appeals to straightforward parents who value substance over embellishment. It's masculine without relying on obvious tough-guy associations, achieving strength through confidence rather than posturing. The name works equally well in rural or urban settings, never seeming out of place. Its rarity ensures distinctiveness while its structure prevents pronunciation confusion or spelling challenges.
