When naming a son in African American communities, families frequently highlight determination, leadership, and cultural heritage. Choices may blend biblical allusions, West African tonal patterns, or references to civil rights heroes. Modern creations—like Jaylen—share space with timeless picks—like Elijah—representing both a nod to the past and optimism for the future. This tradition weaves strength and innovation into a boy’s identity from the start.
