Boys

Clement: Name your little boy after Clement Moore, the author of Twas the Night Before Christmas, and you may not only have a Christmas-lover in your home – but a budding writer as well.

Kristopher: Call your son Kristopher (nickname: Kris) after the season’s jolliest fellow, Kris Kringle, also known as Santa Claus.
