Brigham

I know most people would think of the religious university or the person that it was named after, but I think this name is very strong and assured for a young man. Could carry a lot of dignity and respect for an older gentleman as well. I love the idea of calling him "Brig" as a nick name.

Brigham was originally an English surname coming from a place name made from the elements brigge "bridge" and ham "homestead; settlement." As a first name, its most famous bearer is probably Brigham Young, a Mormon church leader after whom Brigham Young University was named.
