Here is our list of summer-inspired baby names for boys and girls that’ll bring a little sunshine to your day.
From June 20—September 21 we’re in full summer mode. Consider naming your summer bebé June, July or August.
With summer comes beach days filled with sun-kissed skin and salty hair. Kai, Cyrus, Dylan, Soleil, Eilidh, River, Murphy, and Malik are all trending baby names that symbolize the sun or water. Similarly, the name Marigold has a sunny, warm feel to it as does the name Sunny—as does, wait for it—Summer!
Fourth of July is celebrated during summer, so how about a name that resembles our country’s independence and freedom? Charles and Francis are baby names that mean “freedom.” Of course, there are several other beautiful names to choose from, like Saoirse, meaning “liberty,” Lysander meaning “liberator,” or Darby, which stands for “free from envy.” Naturally, America is another name that comes to mind when thinking about the fourth.
