One syllable baby names are becoming an increasingly popular choice by parents for their new arrival. There are lots of reasons to opt for a one syllable name. Perhaps you want to give your child a name that is less likely to be shortened, maybe your surname is long (or a bit unwieldy), and there is no doubt that a shorter name is easier to pronounce, write and spell.
We have an A to Z list below with more than 130 one syllable baby names for girls and boys.
