40 Spring-Themed Baby Names That Celebrate New Life

A lark is a cute little songbird and also happens to be an adorable gender-neutral baby name. It’s a great option for a springtime baby, especially if you hope for them to have a pretty singing voice someday.

Virginia is a classic name, but it also happens to honor the Virginia Bluebell, a gorgeous spring flower. It commonly blooms in the months of March, April, May, and June, according to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, so it’s definitely an appropriate name for your little one.

Take some inspiration from Tracee Ellis Ross’ character on Black-ish and name your baby Rainbow (and call them Bow for short). Rainbows are a common occurrence in the spring thanks to all of those April showers mixing in with the sunny days. Plus, it’s just a cool name in general.

When you think of spring, what comes to mind? For many, it’s the burst of colors that comes after months of bare trees and dreary days, including a huge range of shades of green. By naming your baby Hunter, you’re giving a subtle nod to all those gorgeous green hues of springtime.

If you want a garden full of healthy marigolds, then the Old Farmer’s Almanac says you should start planting them in the spring. So, it’s no wonder Marigold is such a fun name for a spring baby, who, if they are anything like their namesake, will be a bright spot and pop of life wherever they happen to be.

New blossoming life is everywhere you look during the spring months, which is why you should consider naming your little one Eva, which literally means “life”. Similarly, Ava also means life and it’s a great option for someone who loves a trending name since its popularity continues to rise every year.

Though it’s often associated with summer, the majority of the month of June is actually in the spring since summer doesn’t officially start until June 21. Add this sweet name to your list of options.

“Magnolia” may be synonymous with Chip and Joanna Gaines, but it also happens to be a really unique spring-themed baby name because magnolia trees pop beautiful blossoms in the springtime. If your little one is anything like their namesake tree, they’ll need plenty of space to grow but will stand tall and beautiful while they do it.

As temperatures warm up, ice begins to thaw, and it won’t be long before you see and hear that nearby babbling brook moving along once again. Naming your baby Brooks or Brooke is a cute nod to that beautiful and relaxing sound.

You might associate lilies with summer and fall since that’s when most of the species bloom, according to the Old Farmer’s Almanac. However, the yellow trout lily blooms in early spring, which makes Lily fair game for your springtime baby’s name.

As winter comes to an end, birds make their way back home after migrating south for months, which is why a name like Birdie is perfect for a baby born in the spring. This is an especially great pick for parents who love a good vintage name since Nameberry says it hasn’t been one of the top 200 names since 1895.

Jade is another nod to the gorgeous colors you find in the springtime months. It’s a beautiful green with just a hint of blue that makes it stand out. It also just happens to be a really pretty name.

Another really pretty plant-inspired name is Ivy. The gorgeous green plant is known for climbing walls and creating a secret garden-like atmosphere. If you go with this name, just remind your baby that you named them after the beauty of ivy, not after poison ivy.

Frye is a great spring baby name because it has two meanings: free, which is perfect for a little free-spirited kid, and seed, which is a special nod to springtime. Plus, not only is it a cute, unique name, but it also allows you to call your kiddo “small Frye” while they’re growing up, which is just downright adorable.

With all of that new life popping up and all of the pollen that comes with it, bees are very busy in the springtime months. You can celebrate the sweet bugs by naming your baby Bee or Bea, but if you do you must call them honey on a regular basis, because how could you not?
