Alder

Alder is a gender-neutral name of German and English origin. In German, Alder is a variant of Alter, a title once given to the elder of two people with the same name. Fittingly, Alter means "old" or "older," so naming baby Alder could be a lovely way to encourage your little one to respect those who walked the path before them. Alder's English definition comes from the alder tree, a majestic tree found in many places across the world. If you’re looking for an earthy name to connect baby with nature, Alder is a great choice.
