Introducing Kimball, a strong contender for naming your courageous little one. This masculine name is rooted in Old Celtic and Anglo-Saxon languages and means "Leader of Warriors." It also comes from the Old English name Cynebeald, which comprises cyne, meaning "royal," and beald, meaning "power." These definitions work together to remind baby of their extraordinary abilities. Kimball might be recognized as the protagonist of Nobel-prize-winning Rudyard Kipling's novel, but your Kim will be brave enough to carve out their own memorable narrative.
