Aiken

US Popularity Rank: 16189

Origin: Scottish

Meaning: Made of oak; Keeper of horses

Oak trees are commonly seen as a symbol of strength, knowledge, and longevity. Baby Aiken, then, can take inspiration from their name as they go through life. This boy's name has Old English roots, and its meaning of "made of oak" will grow with baby. Aiken can also be a variation of the Scottish and Irish name Eachann, which means "keeper of horses," sticking with the natural feel of Aiken.
