I actually like this name for a boy. It’s cute especially as a middle name if you don’t feel comfortable using it as a first. Love it.

Usages: English (American)
Meaning: Vocabulary name meaning "a fleet of military watercraft". Although navies have been used since ancient Greek and Roman times, Navy is quite a modern word in English. Dating to around the 17th century, it is from the Old French meaning “fleet of ships” – ultimately from the ancient Greek for “ship”. Also a colour name, since Navy blue or Navy is the very dark blue traditionally associated with naval uniforms.
In use since the very late 18th century, originating in the New England region of the United States. The first babies named Navy coincide with the establishment of the US Navy in 1794. Much more common in the US than elsewhere, and historically given to males and females in almost equal numbers.
