Names That Are Perfect For Aquarius Babies

If your due date is between January 21 and February 19, you are likely going to have an Aquarius. Aquarius-born babies are super unique, as those who are born under this zodiac sign show immense originality (via Cosmopolitan). They are also known for telling the truth and being genuine, so you don't have to worry so much about them lying to you in those teenage years.

If you are searching for the perfect name for your soon-to-be Aquarius baby, there are a ton of options to choose from. Aquarius is an air sign, which makes these babies intellectual thinkers, but as the water bearer, Aquarius children are also compassionate and assertive (via Scary Mommy), making finding the perfect name for this mixed personality a bit more difficult. After all, baby names with great meanings make your child's title that much more special.

Whether you are having a boy or a girl, our list of collected names perfect for Aquarians is sure to spark some inspiration. Open up your notes app on your phone and jot down any names you gravitate towards. You're bound to find the right one for you.

One of the biggest Aquarius traits, per Cosmopolitan, is their originality. In fact, children born under this sign are often known as the most eccentric of their peers, so why not give them an original name to match? We love Zosia, meaning "wise thinker," and Shanti, which is a Sanskrit name meaning "quiet" or "tranquil" (via Scary Mommy).

Those under the Aquarius zodiac sign are also known for their compassionate spirit, and they often become great helpers. If you're hoping for a future humanitarian or just a toddler who helps you around the house, try giving them a name like Ophelia, which means "helper" in Greek, or Sacha, which means "helper of mankind" (via PopSugar).

If you are having a boy and want to pay homage to the Aquarius helper spirit, consider a strong name like Salvador, which is Spanish for "savior of the world," or Arvin, which means "friend of the people" (via PopSugar). We also love the names Dax, which has become popular due to Dax Sheperd, and translates to "leader," and Conan, another celebrity name meaning "intelligent" (via Romper).

According to Cosmopolitan, Aquarius babies are extremely fair and kind, and we know your little boy will be, too. Names like Gareth, which means "gentle," and Simon, which means "listener" fit this characteristic and are sure to give your baby a calm entrance into the world (via PureWow). These are just a few of the most unique baby boy names.

If you are looking for a gender-neutral name for your Aquarius baby, you are in luck. There are so many zodiac-themed names that are perfect for a boy or a girl. Quinn is a popular name that has been attributed to both boys and girls, and with its meaning being "counsel," it fits the Aquarius characteristic of giving great advice (via Romper). Sage is another great option that means "wise." Plus, it makes a great middle name, too.

If you want to lean a bit more into their eccentric side (and assertive nature), consider a name like Rebel, which means "rises in opposition to authority" (via Babygaga), or Frankie, which means "freedom" (via Mother.ly).

As an air sign and the water bearer, Aquarius babies are often characterized by both elements. Lean into their dual-personality by choosing an air or water-related name for your baby. Some great water options are Sailor, which means "boat man"; Brook, meaning "small stream,"; Tallulah, which means "leaping water"; or River (via Romper). 

Air names that are perfect for your baby are Aria for a baby girl, which directly means "air"; Ciel, which is perfect for either gender and means "sky" (via Scary Mommy); and Samir, a boy name meaning "wind." These are ultimately just some of the rare baby names you might fall in love, though.

Aquarians are born leaders and because of this, there are many important historical figures who share the Aquarius zodiac sign. If you are looking to honor them, consider using their names for your new baby. Some great options for your little girl include Maya Harris, Rosa Parks, and Amal Clooney​​ (via Mother.ly).

If you are a sports lover, you may want to consider Cristiano Ronaldo, Babe Ruth, Jackie Robinson or Michael Jordan, all Aquarius-born athletes. Other celebrities born under this sign include Oprah Winfrey, Emma Roberts, Evan Peters, Chris Rock, Harry Styles, Alicia Keys and Ed Sheeran.

No matter who you may name your baby after, or what name you choose, know that it will be the perfect name for your future leader.
