Archie
Short for Archibald
Archie is a masculine given name, a diminutive of Archibald.
It enjoyed popularity in the early twentieth century, faded, and has recently revived—partly due to the British royal family naming a prince Archie in 2019.
The name also belongs to the red-haired comic book character who has appeared since 1941 in various media: Have you seen the new season of Riverdale? It's based on Archie comics.
