About this list
July names include Summer names and can be connected by the Independence Day holiday, which abounds with name inspiration. July itself works as a name for a July baby, as do all the other related names like Julian and Juliette.
Names linked to July's birth flowers, the larkspur and water lily, are excellent options, as are those related to the ruby, July's birthstone.
Along with Juliette, other July names for girls in the US Top 1000 include Luna, Ruby, Amelia, and Edith. In addition to Julian, other July names for boys in the US Top 1000 include Cyrus, Phoenix, Declan, and Apollo.
Late July babies might have Leo names related to the sign of the zodiac. Cancer baby names are appropriate for children born earlier in the month.
Since July is the seventh month of the year, names like Seven and Septima are especially appropriate for a July baby. Names for babies born in July can also reference saints whose feast days are celebrated in July.
If your baby is going to be born in July, these names make wonderful options. Here is our full collection of names for July babies.
