80+ Lovable Boy Names That Start With L

Ryan Brennan | May 13, 2025

If you love a good comeback story, then you’ll love what L boy names have in store for you. 

The letter “L” was a top-10 first initial for boys every year between 1880 and 1956 before suffering its big downfall — falling as far back as 16th in the late-1970s and 1980s, according to Behind the Name.

But that downfall was never going to last too long.

The letter “L” re-entered the top-10 in 2005 and has now been a top-5 first initial for boys every year since 2013 — most recently ranking 4th in 2023 after several years at No. 3. 

And we have several L boy names to thank for this recent rise in popularity. 

In fact, we saw 11 boy names that start with L crack the U.S. Social Security Administration’s (SSA) list of the top-100 most popular boy names of 2023.  

Liam, of course, ranked No. 1 on that list after being given to more than 20,000 baby boys in 2023, alone. 

Lucas (9th), Levi (12th), Leo (18th), Luca (24th), Luke (31st), Logan (39th), Lincoln (64th), Leonardo (84th), Luka (95th) and Landon (97th) were the only other L boy names to crack the top 100. 

That’s quite impressive considering there are only five L names for boys listed in the SSA’s most popular boy names over the past century — which includes data from 1924 to 2023. 

Those five names included Larry (37th), Lawrence (78th), Logan (82nd), Liam (94th) and Lucas (100th).

Since boy names starting with L are in high demand today, let’s take a look at some of the more unique L boy names that are emerging in the United States — and where those L boy names come from.
