Matthew is a globally fashionable classic. Whether it's Matteo in Italy, Mads in Denmark or Mathieu in Quebec, the name is uniformly hot. The form Matthias is heard in Germany and in English bibles. It could also work well for American babies, as kin to scholarly/archaic choices like Darius and Isaias.
