Florian

This name is popular in Germany and Austria, however in the USA, they would probably call Child Services on you for naming a little boy this! Yes, it's a little feminine, and a little flowery and wimpy sounding, but I love it. One of the guys in Kraftwerk is named Florian, and St. Florian is the patron of fire prevention as well. Neither of these namesakes are particularly wimpy!

Florian is derived from the Latin Florianus, which comes from the word flos meaning "flower."
