Balthasar

+ Add to List

Throughout history, this powerfully distinctive name has gone from religious (originally, one of the Three Wise Men in the Bible) to secular (a character in two Shakespeare plays) to somewhat villainous (a less-than-likable character in a handful of modern movies). But its combination of strength and a cool, noble air make it worth a close look.
