Whether you're looking to honor rapper Eminem or baby's British or Arabic roots, this one-syllable name is iconic. Slim is most common among baby boys and means "slim" or "slender" in Old English. It's also a cute short form for Arabic Slimane, meaning "man of peace," or perhaps Salim, which means "safe" or "healthy." Either way, this short and sweet pick should not be underestimated. Baby will undoubtedly stand out from their peers and love walking the road less traveled!
