Fruit Baby Names
- Pomelo
Origin:
Word nameMeaning:
"citrus fruit"Description:
Clementine, Peaches, Cherry, and Pepper (and more occasionally, Apple) are all in use for girls, while the name of the largest citrus fruit, Pomelo, might be a more unisex option if you want something both rare and from the fruit bowl.
- Rimona
Origin:
HebrewMeaning:
"pomegranate"Description:
Well used in Israel, likely to be confused with Ramona here.
- Vidalia
Origin:
LatinMeaning:
"life"Description:
The name Vidalia comes from the Latin Vitalis, the root of which stems from vita, meaning "life". Most people would know of Vidalia as a type of onion, which were historically grown in Vidalia, Georgia. Vidalia as a place name was named after Spanish aristocrat Don José Vidal.
- Miskomin
Origin:
OjibweMeaning:
"raspberry"Description:
An upbeat sounding name, Miskomin is the Ojibwe word for raspberry, or, more literally "red, small and globular berry".
- Tangerine
Origin:
Word nameDescription:
We've had Apples, Plums, Peaches, Cherries, and Berries added to the fruit basket: you could be the first to pick a Tangerine.
- Mansikka
Origin:
FinnishMeaning:
"strawberry"Description:
Sweet yet spiky in sound, Mansikka is the Finnish word for strawberry, making this a summery, foodie choice. While the word Strawberry has only appeared in the US stats a handful of times over the years, Mansikka was given to 39 girls in Finland in a recent year.
- Lumikirsikka
Origin:
FinnishMeaning:
"snow cherry"Description:
Sparkly, wintery, and vibrant, this Finnish compound name blends two word names into one. Meaning "snow cherry", it was chosen for 12 girls in Finland in a recent year.
- Mefus
Origin:
WelshMeaning:
"strawberries"Description:
Similar enough to Mavis in sound that it might just work, Mefus is a sweet and summery choice taken directly from the Welsh word for "strawberries". The pronunciation, MEH-vis is likely to be unintuitive outside of Wales, though within Wales, it might have the same energy as choosing Apple or Plum. One for the middle spot, perhaps.
