Borys

In the battle of choosing baby names, Borys is a small victory. This boy's name is rooted in Slavic and Bulgarian heritage and shares a close connection with Boris. Widely used in Belarus, Russia, Bulgaria, Ukraine, and more. It draws from words such as bogöri, meaning "short, bor signifying "fight," and slav being "glory." Borys made its debut in written records under the Bulgarian ruler Kynaz Boris I. He later became the first Bulgarian saint after embracing Christianity in 864 AD. Whether its to honor your Slavic roots, connect to your faith, or forge your little warrior from steel, Borys takes delight in relishing the "battle glory" of triumphing over all the other baby names.
