Unless you have been living under a rock late, you will know that place-inspired baby names are totally having a day in the sun.
Celebrities are in on the action (Hi, Paris Hilton!) with Ashley Simpson and Peter Wentz picking ‘Bronx’ when naming their son, and both Vanessa Lachey and Kristin Cavallari going for ‘Camden’ for their little boys.
Think you would like to name your baby after somewhere you love going (or just like the sound of)? Here are 13 great choices to pick from:
1. Arizona
A state in the US, obvs, but also a very cool name for a little girl, we think.
2. Milan
Shakira did it. And, if you are a mama into your fashion, you will more than likely have visited the Italian city and, like us, fallen in love with its chic-ness and style.
3. Railay
To any parent who has spent parts of their 20s backpacking through Thailand (guilty!), you will probably be familiar with Railay Beach. A climber’s paradise and beaches more stunning than Hawaii, we think Railey also makes for one cute little girl’s name.
4. Austin
Not after the infamous Austin Powers, but more about the city in Texas.
5. Indiana
And even better, you can call her ‘Indy’ for short.
6. Hudson
New York, New York… We love the idea of having a little boy with a name inspired by this amazing city.
7. Rio
They just hosted the Olympics, and we think Rio will work just as well as a name for a little girl as it does for a city.
8. Bronx
Named after one of the boroughs in New York, Bronx has become a popular hipster name for boys.
9. Siena
Not just after boho princess Sienna Miller, but also the gloriously beautiful city in Italy, of course.
10. Camden
Dublin has its very own – and very hip and happening – Camden Street, of course, but it is also a very cool and urban area of London as you know.
11. Vienna
A city, of course, but also a lovely name for your little girl.
12. Phoenix
LOVE the name Phoenix – which is, in case you didn’t know – a city in the state of Arizona in the US.
13. Devon
Who wouldn’t want to name their child after the beautiful British countryside? We love how Devon is also completely unisex, and perfect no matter what you end up having.
