Matt

Matt is a boy’s name of Hebrew origin. While the title stems from Matthew, the abbreviated once-nickname fits perfectly into the list of short and sweet takes on traditional titles. While Matt has standalone status, it still shares a meaning, “gift of God,” with its longer counterpart. If you want to give baby a name that ties them to their faith, then this might be a perfect choice. In the bible, Matthew was one of the 12 disciples, known for writing the New Testament. Matt isn’t reserved for those with religious connections, though. The name is proudly paraded around Hollywood by stars including Matt Damon and Matt LeBlanc, along with an array of sportspeople and creatives alike. Thanks to this, baby Matt will have plenty of people to inspire whatever his inner gift may be.
