Kolt gallops onto the baby-name scene like a lively caballo, its hooves kicking up dreams of open ranges and big horizons. A playful twist on the English word “colt,” it carries the image of a young horse—fresh energy, raw potential, and a heart that won’t be fenced in. Some storytellers also point to a tiny Danish village named Kolt, adding a dash of European wanderlust to the mix. Pronounced KOHLT, the name feels brisk and confident, as if it tips its hat, says “¡hola!” and rides off toward adventure. Over the decades it has lingered just inside the U.S. Top 1,000, steady as a sunset trot, never too common, never too distant—perfect for parents who want a name that’s familiar yet free-spirited. From rodeo arenas to Silicon Valley garages, Kolt suggests a boy who can lasso problems with a grin and sprint toward tomorrow with an open corazón.
