About this list
Sagittarius names may be inspired by a wide range of amazing symbols and signs. In astrology, Sagittarius is the sign of the archer, making names like Apollo and Arrow ideal for a Sagittarian baby.
Sagittarius is one of three fire signs of the zodiac, so names that mean fire could be another appropriate choice. Purple and blue hues are associated with the Sagittarius zodiac sign, as are gems such as Turquoise, Topaz, and Citrine.
Along with Apollo, other Sagittarius baby names in the US Top 500 include Archer, Autumn, Cyrus, Ember, Iris, Felix, Kyler, and Sage. Other archery-related names include Bowman, Fletcher, Ivara, and Rami.
You may also be interested in November names or December names, depending on your child's birth month.
Babies born under Sagittarius could potentially share a name with a well-known Sagittarian like Taylor Swift or Jimi Hendrix.
