Short names

Short names have become increasingly popular with parents in recent years. These first names ranging from 3 to 6 letters only seduce by their cute side. They seem softer, easier and faster to pronounce, which has made them a great success. However, this does not mean that your child will have the same first name as all his or her classmates! Some are still very uncommon, so you can easily find a short and original name for your future child. A choice that can even be very practical when the family name is long.

You will find short names in each country if you want to take a look at your origins. First names of Chinese or Japanese origin have a reputation for being small.

If you wish to refine your search we also offer a very short first name category on our site.
