Names to give your Christmas tree, most of them funny: puns like Tree-yoncé, Fir Real and Needle Patrick Harris, mock titles like Sir Sheds-a-Lot, and sweet picks such as Douglas, Twinkle and Tiny Tim for the small ones. The list has 500 names, all family friendly.

About Christmas tree names

A tree that spends a month in the living room ends up being talked to, so plenty of families give it a name on the day it comes through the door. The favorite kind is a pun on a tree word. Spruce, fir, pine, needle, bough, tinsel and bauble all slot neatly into famous names and everyday phrases, which is how you get Spruce Springsteen, Tree-yoncé, Michael Bauble, Fir Real and Pine and Dandy.

The list mixes that wordplay with other styles. There are mock titles for a tree that takes itself seriously (Sir Sheds-a-Lot, Lady Evergreen, Mayor of the Living Room), short sweet names taken from real Christmas tree species and from the trimmings (Douglas, Balsam, Fraser, Noble, Tinsel, Twinkle), and ordinary first names bent around a tree word, like Balsamantha, Firgus and Treemothy.

A good share of the names is for trees with character: the small one on a table (Tiny Tim, Half Pint Pine), the one that leans (Eileen, Leaning Tower of Treeza), the last one on the lot (Needs a Little Love, Discount Douglas) and the artificial one that lives in a box for eleven months (Faux Fir, Plastic Fantastic, Pre-Lit Pete). Everything is kept clean, so the whole family can vote.

How to choose Christmas tree names

  • Look at the tree before you name it. A tall, full one can carry Treezilla or Ceiling Scraper, while a wonky one has already picked Sir Leans-a-Lot for itself.
  • Use the species if you know it. A Douglas fir is a Doug Fir, a Fraser fir can be Fraser the Fir, and a blue spruce makes a fine Bruce the Spruce.
  • Let everyone in the house shortlist one name, then vote while you decorate. Reroll the generator until each person has a favorite.
  • Say it the way you will use it: "Has anyone watered Balsamuel?" If the sentence makes you smile, the name works.
  • An artificial tree can keep its name for years, so pick one that will still be funny when it comes out of the box next December, such as Old Faithful or Some Assembly Required.

Frequently asked questions

What are some funny names for a Christmas tree?

Puns on tree words get the biggest laugh. Try Tree-yoncé, Britney Spruce, Will Fir-rell, Needle Little Christmas or Knotty or Nice. If the family prefers a grand title to a pun, Count Dropula and Archduke Fir-dinand are in the list too.

What should I name a small or lopsided tree?

Lean into it. Tiny Tim, Lil' Twig and Pine-t Size suit a tabletop tree, and Eileen, Lopsided Larry and Bad Side to the Wall suit one that tilts. A sparse tree with one bauble on it can be One Ornament Wonder.

Are there names for an artificial tree?

Yes. Faux Fir, Faux Real, Plastic Fantastic, Polly Vinyl, Aluminum Al and No-Shed Ned all suit a tree that never drops a needle. Because the same tree comes back every year, a name like Old Faithful tends to stick.

Do the celebrity puns make fun of anyone?

No. Names like Spruce Springsteen, Ariana Grand Fir and Bauble Ross are plain wordplay on a tree word and a famous name, meant with affection. They make up about a fifth of the list, so you can skip them and still have hundreds of names to choose from.
