Names That Are English Words #3

In most languages, names mean something in their own language. Only a few names in English-speaking countries have a meaning in the English language.
All names are playable in Scrabble and have been in the top 1000 baby names in the US since 2000, according to the Social Security Administration.
Pink and blue indicate whether the name is more popular for girls or boys, respectively. Shaded rows are words that aren't playable in Scrabble (considered proper nouns).
Some names fall into multiple categories. Don't nitpick.
To make it easier, the first letter of each name and the number of letters are provided.
