Bear

Bear is a baby boy name with English and German origins. Meaning “bear,” this name is most obviously associated with the large furry creatures found in forests and mountains in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia. But this name has come a long way from distant waters as a powerful symbol in Native American cultures for strength, courage, and wisdom. Additionally, it may mean “brown” or “the brown one,” coming from the Old English word bera. Whether you want a name more unique than Teddy or you want baby to be as big a presence as they can be, Bear is the way to go.
