Gummy

Honey entered the US Top 1000 for the first time ever in 2024, following the lead of parents in England, who've elevated this nickname-name to the Top 300 girls' names in the UK. Honey's popularity in the UK can be credited to its status as a cute British celebrity baby name, used by actress Kate Winslet, chef Jamie Oliver, and TV presenter Fearne Cotton, among others.
 
More broadly, Honey's spike in popularity may have been inspired by the release of the 2022 film adaptation of Matilda the Musical, which, like the enduring novel it's based on, features the kind, compassionate teacher, Miss. Honey. Alternatively, nickname-names were just big in 2024, with Scottie, Billie, Lettie, and Indy also climbing the charts.
 
If you find this name super sweet, but worry about its use as a (sometimes condescending) term of endearment, you could consider Honora, Henrietta, Helen, Hermione, or Holland with the nickname Honey instead.

i use nameberry for naming my original characters rather than naming an actual human child so these might not be actually ideal for a real baby lol, some of these i've found on nameberry, some i've found on other websites, and some i've just come up with myself. they might be labeled as for girls or boys but most could work for either.
