About spring names

Spring names come from a few reliable sources. The first is the word for the season itself: Haru and its compounds (Haruki, Haruka, Haruko, Haruto, Koharu) in Japanese, Chun and Chunhua in Chinese, Bom and Saebom in Korean, Vasant and Basanti in Sanskrit and Hindi, Aviv and Aviva in Hebrew, Bahar in Persian and Turkish, Rabi in Arabic, Vesna across the Slavic languages, Primavera in Italian and Spanish, and the poetic German Lenz. English uses Spring itself only rarely, so Verna, Vernon and Laverne, from the Latin ver, stand in for it.

The second source is what spring looks like. Blossom names (Sakura, Ume, Momo, Fleur, Flora, Blodwen, Zahra, Kusuma, Pushpa) and early flowers (Primrose, Daffodil, Jonquil, Crocus, Bluebell, Violet, Hyacinth, Tulip, Lilac, Magnolia) are the biggest group. Names meaning new growth or rebirth belong here too: Chloe ('young green shoot'), Pallavi ('new leaves'), Nitzan ('bud'), Tsvetan, Renata, Anastasia ('resurrection') and Nova.

Third are the season's gods and festivals: Persephone and Kore, Flora and Maia, Eostre and Ostara, Chloris and Zephyrus, Brigid, Jarilo, Vesna. Last come birth-month names for March, April and May (Marcus, Martina, Yayoi, April, Avril, May, Mae, Mei, Satsuki, Aquamarine, Emerald) and the pet names: Sprout, Clover, Puddle, Peep, Bunny, Rhubarb, Tadpole.

Tips for choosing a name

  • For a baby, stay with names that have real history of use (Haruki, Aviva, Bahar, Vesna, Flora, Chloe, April, May, Primrose, Violet) and keep word names like Sprout, Puddle or Rhubarb for pets and fictional characters.
  • Use the birth month to narrow the list: March gives Marcus, Martina, Yayoi, Daffodil, Jonquil and Aquamarine; April gives April, Avril, Uzuki, Daisy, Sweet Pea and Diamond; May gives May, Mae, Mei, Maia, Satsuki, Hawthorn, Lily of the Valley and Emerald.
  • Spring names pair well as middle names: Wren April, Theo Florian, Ava Primrose, Kai Haruto. The season is there without carrying the whole name.
  • For fantasy characters, reach for the deities and old words: Ostara, Chloris, Thallo, Favonius, Jarilo, Blodeuwedd, Sakuya, Beltane. Their sound already says 'renewal' to most readers.
  • For pets born or adopted in spring, match the name to the animal: Clover, Meadow or Fern for a calm dog, Tadpole or Pollywog for something tiny and wriggly, Peep or Chick for a yellow bird, Flopsy or Cottontail for a rabbit.
