Unique boy names that start with A. Out in front and leading the pack, the letter A stands strong with the symmetry of an equilateral triangle.
Being the vowel that takes the least effort to pronounce, it’s pretty hard to go wrong with the letter A. Coming in as the 3rd most used letter (behind ‘E’ and ‘T’) according to Wikipedia, the letter A is derived from the word ‘aleph’ which most likely comes from a representation of an ‘Ox’ which suits this multi-tasking letter.
All of these factors make unique boy names that start with A a great choice. Try this: pronounce all the vowels of the English alphabet and you will notice that it just rolls off the tongue – it’s the vowel that uses the least amount of facial muscles to pronounce.
If you’re going to choose a unique name, it would be a good idea to balance out the extra effort needed to remember and pronounce the name with such an easy-going initial letter.
All things considered, it’s hard to argue that unique boy names that start with A are a great compromise between original and tried and true.
For the names below, try pronouncing each one. You may find that a name sounds good but it doesn’t sound quite right and if that’s the case, there’s no harm in modifying it until it sounds just right.
