German names usually have a feeling of strength and rich history. This group of unisex names with German roots carries these features, giving a feel of solidness and age-old customs.

Names such as Aubrey and Emmett may be popular in many cultures, but their Germanic roots give them a lasting strength. Then there are names like Zeppelin and Kellen. These reflect a modern German feel, adding a unique and current touch.
