Kermit

US Popularity Rank: 22976

Origin: Irish

Meaning: Without envy

If naming your little munchkin after the Cookie Monster and Count von Count seems a little out there, consider Kermit, from the Manx name Kermode and related to the Irish name Mac Diarmata, meaning "son of Diarmaid." This classic boy's name is packed with nostalgia and good vibes. If you recall, Kermit the Frog became a much-beloved character of The Muppet Show after only one year on Sesame Street. Relatable to many, Kermit embodied a shy, compassionate, and sometimes awkward child. Although you can only hope that baby has their own quirky band of misfits to play with, you'll always be their first teacher.
