Bruce
Common masculine name
Bruce is a masculine given name, Scottish in origin.
It became common partly through Robert the Bruce, the medieval Scottish king.
In Australian slang, Bruce became a generic name for any man, similar to how Americans might use Joe or buddy: G'day, Bruce.
The name peaked in mid-20th century English-speaking countries.
