Cy

Cy is a refreshingly brief name that carries a surprising amount of history and meaning. Derived from the Greek name Cyrus, it means 'lord' or 'throne', evoking a sense of nobility and strength despite its brevity. Cy is both an independent name and a common short form of names like Cyril or Cyram. Its vintage charm was brought back into style, in part, by musician Cy Coleman. This one-syllable name stands out with its simplicity and is perfect for parents looking to make a small yet impactful choice.
