Parenting.com predicted that classical names — such as Connor (Scottish, wise), Logan (Irish, meadow), Dylan (Welsh, sea), Caleb (Hebrew, faithful) and Mason (French, stone worker). The names aren’t as prevalent as classics like Michael (Hebrew, who is like God) or Jacob (Hebrew, sup-planter, substitute) — will be in fashion again. Additionally, such unisex names as Riley (Irish, valiant), Rory (Irish, famous brilliance), Jayden (Hebrew, God has heard) and Avery (English, elf counselor) would be popular.
