Our Christmas baby name of the day is Eve. Eve is a Hebrew name meaning "life." She's never been too popular. Currently she stands at #546; her peak was in 1907, when she reached #414. Eve has never fallen out of the top 1000, but she came close in 1984, when she fell to #998.
Eve is very similar to her more popular sound-alikes, including Eva, Ava, and Evie. Her special connection to Christmas Eve makes her better for a holiday baby. Eve would be a great name for a baby girl born on December 24. Check back tomorrow for our final installment of the 25 Days of Christmas series. Happy Christmas Eve!

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.

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.
