Memphis

Memphis is a name that carries a sense of place and grandeur. It originated from the ancient Greek name for Egypt's historic city. The name has a modern, edgy feel, likely popularized by the soulful music scene of its American city namesake. Though it's more common as a place name, using it as a baby name lends an air of uniqueness. Memphis Depay, the Dutch footballer, is a notable bearer. The name doesn’t lend itself easily to nicknames, making it a strong standalone choice.
