Nosferatu

To some, Nosferatu may sound like “the midnight call of the Bird of Death,” but to lovers of all things horror and the macabre, it couldn’t be more iconic. Nosferatu is a modern masculine name with Romanian roots, derived from Nesuferit. With meanings like “troublesome,” “unbearable,” and “offensive,” it’s no wonder Nosferatu has been synonymous with vampires for quite some time! No doubt baby will have a cheeky side, and Nosferatu certainly calls on its bearer to stir things up. This name has been made famous by the 1922 movie Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror, the 2024 remake Nosferatu, and, of course, Spongebob Squarepants' tribute to horror, the “Graveyard Shift” episode.
