Cawstykk /kɑ́stɪk/ (male)

Distancing itself from the word ‘caustic’ with a beautifully unique spelling, this homonym (or ’homophone’ for the more pedantic reader) nevertheless carries some of the word’s edge with it wherever it goes. It does so to the benefit of its undeniable resemblance to historically edge-less names like ‘Nick’ and ‘Derek.’

(Update: Supercouple Kanye West and Kim Kardashian recently chose this name for their new baby boy, who was born July 12, 2017. One can only imagine what this will do for the name’s standing in the Global Top 100! Welcome to the world, Cawstykk West!)

“Cawstykk came back from summer camp with a bit of an attitude problem.”
