Cairo

With the popularity of the name Kai and place names it seems Cairo is a logical next step lol.

I like this name, I think it’s modern yet somewhat classic. Yet modern. The name seems very serious yet still youthful but I have to say one thing, I don’t like it on a boy. I guess it’s okay on a boy but it seems weird. On a girl or just fits better, it’s like Hunter on a girl, made for a boy but fits perfectly for a girl. I think it’s sporty and strong but just not super masculine.

I dig it! I dig it a lot!

Yeah, I'm pretty sure everyone will immediately think of the city.

Who in their right minds would ever name a kid this? People feel baffled by it.

Cairo isn't anymore exotic than naming your kid China, India, London and Paris. I think it's a cool name and would consider using it.

I really like it. Even though it's unique, it's not out there or pretentious. It's simple and sounds like someone I would know.

Who would name their kid after the capital of a country with such a patriarchal, misogynistic culture?

This is mostly a place name to me, but I love the sound of it.

I adore the name Cairo. Although I don't mind it on a boy, whenever I say it I think of a girl. I've tried spelling it in a different way so that it looks less place name-y or feminine, but... yeah... too trendy. Couldn't actually do it without wanting to stab out my eyeballs.

I love the name Cairo for a boy only. I think it is an under utilized place name that has a rather exotic flair with out being too eccentric.

I adore this name! I have loved Egypt since I was a child. I have loved the name Cairo for at least 7 years. I would love to use it, I like it on a boy.

My son's name, though we call him Cai for short. I obviously am really fond of this name for personal reasons as well as what it implies, for example: Exotic Egypt, it means Victorious, Cai is a variant of Kai which means 'Sea' in Hawaiian, and a character out of one of my favourite books and so on.

I'm afraid that my daughter will be known as Cairo. Her name will be Kyra O'___. To me it sounds a little exotic.
