Lennox has the snap of a Scottish fire. From a district north of Glasgow and the Gaelic Leamhnach, "place of elms," the name belonged to a Scottish earldom and surfaces in Macbeth as a loyal nobleman. In the modern era it crossed over through boxer Lennox Lewis and, more recently, a crop of celebrity baby announcements — Kelly Rowland, Jaime King — pushing it into the US top 1000 in 2014. It now holds at 263 and reads fully unisex. The lock-kick ending, the firm double consonants. Contemporary, slightly glamorous, easily paired. A name built for a child who will not be overlooked.
