Boone

Boone is a boy’s name that means “good,” “blessing,” or “a timely benefit.” While Boone might be familiar as an American last name, it has a French origin, from Bohon, that gives it a surprising touch of elegance. Boone may also come from the Old Norse bon, meaning “a petition” or “a prayer,” elevating this name to mighty paladin status. It is an original name for baby, and one that will be a blessing when they never get confused for another on the playground.
