Latin Boy Names

1537 latin boy names with meanings, U.S. popularity, and audio pronunciation on every page.

Looking for girl names instead? Latin Girl Names →

Say a Latin boy name in a crowded room and nobody asks you to spell it. That is the whole appeal: strength without strain, tradition without dust. James has been steady for generations and shows no sign of tiring, Oliver climbed to the very top of the American charts, and Lucas manages to sound both ancient and completely current. Add Leo (lion), three letters that punch far above their weight, and you have the core of the Latin boy names parents keep coming back to — names that will survive a kindergarten roll call, a college application and a nameplate on a door.

The more textured picks are worth a slower look. Sebastian and Julian bring a certain old-world elegance that never tips into precious, while Santiago and Luca carry Spanish and Italian warmth straight from the same root stock. For something with a surname edge, Bennett (blessed) and Miles read polished and a little literary. And if you want the boldest option on the page, Roman says exactly what it is — unapologetic, cinematic, and surprisingly wearable on a small boy.

Every name below opens to its full page — a sourced meaning, its journey out of Rome and into English, its U.S. popularity, and a clear audio pronunciation so you can hear it before you fall for it.
