Vietnamese Baby Boy Names

Nailing the perfect name for a baby boy is both a challenging and rewarding experience. And if you know anything about baby naming in Vietnam, you’ll know that selecting a suitable moniker comes with a weighty responsibility. In Vietnamese culture, names are believed to have a major impact on baby’s future and personality. So it’s always wise to choose a name that embodies your wishes and values, as well as resilience, wisdom, kindness, strength and any other traits you hope will shine through as you watch your boy grow into the gorgeous little man you know they’ll be.

There are plenty of ways you can symbolize the bright future you’ve planned for baby while pinning down the right name too. Like many parents, you might want to look a little deeper into meanings to aim for something that represents courage, valor, luck and balance. Or, you might tap into names that connect to nature and spirituality. In Vietnam, the sound of a name can be just as important as its meanings and associations.
