About the name Cosmo

From the same Greek root as cosmos, Cosmo means order and beauty and somehow still sounds like a party. Scottish aristocrats and Florentine bankers both used it, and it now sits in the small category of names that are simultaneously grand and completely ridiculous, in the best way.

Cosmo is a boy name of Greek origin, pronounced KOZ-moh. On the NameRarity scale it scores 88 out of 100, which places it in the very rare band — a genuinely uncommon pick — most people have never met anyone with this name. Its strongest period was the Victorian era.
