On June 10, 1915, Nobel Prize-winning author Saul Bellow was born, later becoming one of America's most influential literary voices with his novels Herzog and Humboldt’s Gift. Traditionally given to a long-awaited child, Saul is the Biblical name of the first king of Israel as well as the apostle Paul’s name before his conversion. Saul has always ranked in the middle of the US Top 1000 boy names, making it a sweet spot choice. It’s particularly popular among both Jewish and Spanish parents, among the Top 100 names in Spain and Mexico. Downside: Better Call Saul jokes.
