---

Hak began as a surname, showing up independently in Dutch, Czech, Cambodian, Bengali, and Chinese naming traditions long before parents started using it as a first name for boys. That mix of unrelated backgrounds gives it a well-traveled feel, while the short, clean shape keeps it simple to say and write. It's pronounced HAHK-soo (IPA /ˈhɑːksuː/), so it's worth practicing that out loud before you commit it to a birth certificate.
