His Top 13
Name Meaning
Howard, Of English and Germanic origin, commonly associated with meanings such as “brave heart,” “high guardian,” or “noble protector.” A name with old bones and steady hands; strength that doesn’t need spectacle to prove itself. There’s something quietly commanding about Howard—protective, dependable, built to hold his ground when everything around him shifts.
Ariston, Of Greek origin, derived from aristos, meaning “best,” “excellent,” or “the finest.” A middle name carrying distinction without needing to announce it; excellence as nature rather than performance. Something refined lives here. A man who knows the difference between having power and needing people to see it.
Drake, Of English origin, historically associated with “dragon” and also used in reference to a male duck. As a surname, it carries a sharper edge—strength, fire, and something almost mythic beneath its simplicity. Drake feels controlled but dangerous when necessary; a name that doesn’t bare its teeth unless given reason.
Nickname Meaning
How, short, smooth, and unexpectedly intimate. It takes all the weight of Howard and loosens the collar just enough. There’s curiosity tucked inside the sound of it, something unfinished that makes you lean closer without realizing you did. How doesn’t feel like a nickname everybody gets to use. It feels earned. How is what you call him when Howard has already let you past the polished parts. When the suit jacket is off. When the voice drops lower. When those damn gray-green eyes stop watching the whole room and settle on you.
Fun Facts
It’s not usual for citizens of Umberland to gray. There is indeed something in the water here, so when Howard popped out with gray hair in his beard, let’s just say it had nothing to do with him being 876 years old.
He might be single but he isn’t actively looking for a partner. He already has his eyes on someone. She just hasn’t found him yet.
He’s what many might call a life coach. He helps bring people back to themselves. He also owns a security firm.
