Clyde
Glasgow's main waterway
Clyde is a masculine given name of Scottish origin, from the River Clyde.
It peaked in American popularity in the early twentieth century and now sounds dated.
The name evokes the era of Bonnie and Clyde, the Depression-era outlaws whose 1930s crime spree made them folk antiheroes: He fancies himself a Clyde looking for his Bonnie.
