Po is a boy's baby name of uncertain origin, possibly a short form used in various cultures, or a standalone modern name with a minimalist appeal.

EtymologyShow more

Po first shows up in U.S. Social Security records in 1982. First appearing in the 1980s, Po emerged during a period of rapid naming innovation in America, when parents increasingly created new names or adopted them from global cultures.

Without a confirmed origin classification, Po may have arrived through family tradition, creative coinage, or cultural channels not yet documented in standard naming references.
