With the popularity of the name Kai and place names it seems Cairo is a logical next step lol.

I like this name, I think it’s modern yet somewhat classic. Yet modern. The name seems very serious yet still youthful but I have to say one thing, I don’t like it on a boy. I guess it’s okay on a boy but it seems weird. On a girl or just fits better, it’s like Hunter on a girl, made for a boy but fits perfectly for a girl. I think it’s sporty and strong but just not super masculine.
The name Cairo was given to 266 boys born in the US in 2016.

I adore the name Cairo. Although I don't mind it on a boy, whenever I say it I think of a girl. I've tried spelling it in a different way so that it looks less place name-y or feminine, but... yeah... too trendy. Couldn't actually do it without wanting to stab out my eyeballs.
I adore this name! I have loved Egypt since I was a child. I have loved the name Cairo for at least 7 years. I would love to use it, I like it on a boy.

My son's name, though we call him Cai for short. I obviously am really fond of this name for personal reasons as well as what it implies, for example: Exotic Egypt, it means Victorious, Cai is a variant of Kai which means 'Sea' in Hawaiian, and a character out of one of my favourite books and so on.
