Fruit Baby Names

  1. Almendra
    • Origin:

      Spanish, Latin
    • Meaning:

      "almond"
    • Description:

      A rare choice with familiar sounds, Almendra is a Spanish word name meaning "almond", making it a nature-inspired choice with links to Bible and to marzipan treats. With potential nickname Alma, it could be an appealing choice.
  2. Jagoda
    • Origin:

      Polish and Croatian
    • Meaning:

      "berry; strawberry"
    • Description:

      Jagoda is a Top 50 choice in Poland and Croatia, where it is also the word for "berry" (in Croatian and other South Slavic languages, "strawberry"). Jagoda is also seen as a surname around the world.
  3. Acai
    • Origin:

      Brazilian Portuguese fruit and tree name
    • Description:

      The açai palm is a tree native to Brazil that produces açai berries (the base of those trendy smoothie bowls). Since US birth certificates don't allow for diacritical marks, we are unsure if people are naming their children after the fruit (pronounce ah-sah-EE) or omitting the cedilla and pronouncing it a-KYE.
  4. Persimmon
    • Origin:

      American fruit name from Powhatan
    • Meaning:

      "a dry fruit"
    • Description:

      We've adopted Plum, Cherry, and even Apple as baby names, so why not Persimmon? It lends itself to the charming nicknames Percy or Persy.
  5. Vadelma
    • Origin:

      Finnish
    • Meaning:

      "raspberry"
    • Description:

      Modern Finnish name taken directly from the Finnish word for raspberry.
  6. Meva
    • Origin:

      Uzbek
    • Meaning:

      "fruit"
  7. Figueroa
    • Origin:

      Spanish
    • Meaning:

      "fig tree"
    • Description:

      This surname ultimately derives from a Galician place name meaning "fig tree", but has spread all over the Spanish-speaking world. It's not certain if it's ever been used as a first name, but it could work - especially as it's reminiscent of the operatic character Figaro.
  8. Danner
    • Origin:

      German
    • Meaning:

      "dweller near the fig tree"
    • Description:

      The authentic pronunciation brings it perilously close to Donna, but most English-speakers would rhyme it more attractively with tanner or manner. A nature name for boys that's both unusual and handsome.
  9. Apricot
    • Origin:

      Fruit name
    • Description:

      A very unique fruit name heard more often on peachy-colored dogs than on baby girls.
  10. Berry
    • Origin:

      Nature name
    • Description:

      If not for Motown founder Berry Gordy, this name would now be totally in the girl group.
  11. Anzu
    • Origin:

      Japanese
    • Meaning:

      "apricot"
    • Description:

      A representative Japanese name with a meaning symbolizing ripeness.
  12. Keresen
    • Origin:

      Cornish
    • Meaning:

      "cherry"
    • Description:

      A subtle Cornish fruit name meaning "cherry." Keresen has only been in use as a name in recent years, following the Cornish trend of adopting names from the dictionary. Unrelated to Kerensa (another Cornish name meaning "love"), it may be an interesting way to honor a Kerry or a Karen, or an alternative to popular Elowen.
  13. Peachy
    • Origin:

      English word name
    • Meaning:

      "peach-like, satisfactory"
    • Description:

      A peachy-keen take on the fruit names Peach and Peaches. Peachy has the additional colloquial meaning of "satisfactory."
  14. Tangerine
    • Origin:

      Word name
    • Description:

      We've had Apples, Plums, Peaches, Cherries, and Berries added to the fruit basket: you could be the first to pick a Tangerine.
  15. Sycamore
    • Origin:

      Nature name
    • Meaning:

      "fig mulberry"
    • Description:

      Tree name with a pleasant sound and rhythm.
  16. Kuol
    • Origin:

      African fruit name
    • Description:

      The name of a bitter African fruit, as well as a name used for boys. Akuol is the feminine variation.
  17. Bramley
    • Origin:

      English
    • Meaning:

      "broom meadow, boom clearing; cooking apple"
    • Description:

      A quaint route to nickname Bram, Bramley is an English surname and place name, originally referring to someone who lived in a meadow or clearing full of the plant, Scotch broom. Also associated with cooking apples, it could make a more discreet way to use a fruit name.
  18. Golnar
    • Origin:

      Persian
    • Meaning:

      "pomegranate flower"
    • Description:

      In English, this Persian name looks harsher than its sound or meaning. But we think it has a lot of dignity; and if Dagmar can get a look it, why not Golnar?
  19. Sabra
    • Origin:

      Hebrew
    • Meaning:

      "prickly pear"
    • Description:

      Term for a native-born Israeli, first brought to notice in Edna Ferber's 1929 novel Cimarron. Prickly pear has been interpreted to mean tough on the outside, soft and sweet within.
  20. Pomegranate
    • Origin:

      Fruit name
    • Description:

      Fruit associated with prosperity, fertility, and marriage in many cultures.

      Pomme or Pomeline are more name-worthy.
