Aries & Cancer Naming Partners

Aries, it may seem as if you and your Cancer partner are on opposite teams, but if you communicate well, you’ll end up with an excellent baby name that suits both partners.

As cardinal signs, you are both interested in staying ahead of the curve — although your definitions may vary. Cancer is content with a name that is well-used but not past its peak, while you prefer a name that is on track to come back in style, but still feels risky and impactful.

You each have different communication styles — you are direct and occasionally insensitive, which has the potential to hurt your Cancer partner’s feelings. Do your best to talk through whatever challenges and disagreements arise and really listen to their point of view rather than steamrolling.

When naming with a Cancer partner, search for warm and energetic names that are rooted in tradition. Compromise with sweet-spot popularity — choices that are well known but not widely used.
