Naming Winter 2013 Baby!!!

  1. Gentry
    • Origin:

      English
    • Meaning:

      "aristocracy"
    • Description:

      A distinctive surname that, despite its meaning, has a cowboy swagger, a la Autry.
  2. Caia
    • Origin:

      Latin, feminine variation of Caius
    • Meaning:

      "to rejoice"
    • Description:

      Caia Caecilia was the Roman Goddess of fire and women. The name Caia would make a truly fresh alternative to the flagging Maya, with which it rhymes.
  3. Grier
    • Origin:

      Scottish, spelling variation of Greer
    • Meaning:

      "alert, watchful"
    • Description:

      The more popular Greer spelling might lean feminine, however, Grier sees more even distribution between the sexes. It is given to a small handful of babies each year, but for every one Grier, there are three Greers.
  4. Berkeley
    • Origin:

      English
    • Meaning:

      "where birches grow"
    • Description:

      The Brits say BARK-lee, but we pronounce it the same as the name of the California college: either way it's quite pretentious and of another era.
  5. CALLAHAN
