Sagittarius Names

Sagittarius Names

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.

      English

      "bowman"

    • Origin:

      Latin
    • Meaning:

      "good fortune, happy"

A current bearer is actress Felicity Huffman.

      English
    • Meaning:

      "scarlet, red"

      English variation of Louis
    • Meaning:

      "renowned warrior"
    • Description:

    • Origin:

      Latin
    • Meaning:

      "she who brings victory; true image"
    • Description:

      The name Veronica projects a triple-threat image: at once saintly, sensuous, and strong. The name derives from Berenice, the Latin form of the Greek name Berenike "she who brings victory", with the spelling influenced by the Latin phrase vera icon "true image". Veronica was the name of the compassionate woman who wiped Jesus's face when he was on his way to Calvary and whose cloth was miraculously imprinted with his image: she is now the patron saint of photographers.

    • Origin:

      Latinate feminine variation of Louis
    • Meaning:

      "renowned warrior"
    • Description:

      Louisa, a quaint but strongvintage name, is an example of the idea that these days, old-style girls’ names are more fashionable when they end with an a rather than with an e, as in Julie/Julia, Diane/Diana. So for the next generation, Louisa may rise again, especially with the growing popularity of other Lou/Lu-starting names, like Lucy and Luna. Louisa reentered the US Top 1000 in 2014 after a 45 year absence.
  20. Susan
    • Origin:

      English diminutive of Susannah, Hebrew
    • Meaning:

      "lily"
    • Description:

      Although Susan had her heyday from the thirties to the sixties, and is now common among moms and new grandmas, and though most modern parents would prefer Susanna/Susannah, we have spotted some flickers of interest in a revival. It still retains a certain black-eyed-Susan freshness.
