Benedict, your baby boy, will surely enrich your life. It was in the sixth century that Saint Benedict established the Benedictine order of monks, and this Latin name dates back to that time. Although the name has significant meanings in Catholicism, it is equally appropriate for a little boy brought up in a non-Catholic household. This is an ideal name for a charming young boy because of its somewhat traditional sound. With famous people like Benedict Cumberbatch, who plays Sherlock, as role models, this curious young mind will surely be amazed by all it meets.
