Bronx

Bronx is a modern given name that originates from the name of the borough of New York City. The borough itself was named after its first settlers, the Bronck family, who were among the earliest European settlers in the area in the 17th century.

The Bronck family name is believed to be of Dutch or German origin, possibly derived from the Dutch words 'bron' meaning 'spring' or 'source' and 'krik' meaning 'small stream'.

As a given name, Bronx has become popular in recent years, particularly for boys. It is often chosen for its connection to the vibrant and diverse borough of New York City, as well as its unique and edgy sound.

While the name has no specific meaning beyond its geographical origins, it carries a sense of urban cool and resilience, reflecting the character of the borough it is named after.
