Beckett

Derived from an English surname based on the Middle English diminutive for a small brook or a beak-like promontory. For centuries it belonged almost exclusively to church history via Thomas Becket and to modernist theater via Samuel Beckett. American parents began selecting it as a given name in the late twentieth century as surname-first names gained traction.

A Beckett is almost certainly under the age of ten and carrying a small backpack. The name suggests parents who read the Paris Review but drive an all-wheel-drive crossover to soccer practice. It registers as composed, slightly British, and decidedly modern. Statistically, the bearer is far more likely to be learning long division than filing tax returns.
