Vigo

Vigo comes from two intriguing roots, offering a rich tapestry of meanings. On one hand, it's a Spanish name derived from the Latin 'Vicus', which translates to 'settlement' or 'village'. This gives Vigo a grounded, community-oriented feel. On the other hand, it carries a Scandinavian flair, stemming from the Old Norse 'Víga', meaning 'to fight' or 'battle'. This dual heritage imbues Vigo with a unique blend of peaceful steadiness and bold, adventurous spirit.

Popularity-wise, Vigo has had an interesting journey over the past decade. It made a surprising leap up 3,487 spots between 2014 and 2015, only to experience a sharp drop from #8,743 to #12,182 the following year. As of 2023, it holds the rank of #7,285, marking its best position to date. While it hasn't entered the top 100, its fluctuations suggest a name that captures attention in waves.

With its strong and classic style, Vigo feels like a name for someone with a confident, adventurous nature. It’s bold without being ostentatious, making it perfect for parents looking for something distinctive yet timeless. Whether inspired by its peaceful or war-like roots, Vigo definitely stands out.
