Spring Names

Happy first day of Spring! I am so excited that Spring is (finally) here. If you're having a Spring baby, you might want to consider one of these very appropriate, seasonal names.

Flower Names
I have a full list of Unexpected Flower Names right here. Some of my favorites are Aster, Liatris, Lotus, Posy, and Zinnia.

Holiday Names
Easter- Some classic Easter names are Pascal and Pascoe, and you could always just go with Easter.
May Day- Expecting a baby on May 1st? You can't go wrong with the sweet, old-fashioned May.

Month Names
March- March is a great month name for a little boy, regardless of what month he's born in.
April- April is one of the more dated month names, but I still find her charming.
May- I've written countless amounts of posts on May. Some of my favorites are Full Names for May, and May Names. 
June-June is a lovely name--one that is slowly rising up the charts. She's at #364 now, but I could see her in the top 300 for the 2014 stats.

Seasonal Names
Equinox- The Spring Equinox is tonight, which makes it a perfect name for a baby born today. The nickname Nox makes it more wearable.
Primavera- The Spanish word for Spring is beautiful. Primavera would make a darling first or middle name for a daughter.
Weather Names- With the start of Spring brings new weather--mainly rain for us here is Chicago. Consider a Weather Name for your child, perhaps Rain, Sky, Sunny, Storm, or Rainbow?

Weather Names

Naming inspiration can come from almost anywhere. But have you thought about the weather? How sweet would it be to name your baby after what's going on outside your window on their birthday? Here are some ideas.

25 Days of Christmas: Season

Today's Christmas baby name is Season. Season means "time of sowing." She's a word name, and has never been ranked in the U.S. top 1000. Season would normally be thought of as a substitute for common season names like Summer and Autumn. However, she could also take on another meaning, the Holiday Season.

A baby Season could go be Cece or Sea. She is a part of the new generation of hippie names, including Meadow and Storm, that replace Harmony and Sunshine. So long as that doesn't bother you, she'd make a great name for a holiday baby.
