In your bundle of baby name ideas, we dare you to find a cooler one than Bolin. While it might appear similar to Colin, a popular masculine name, Bolin has its own unique sound and story, with several origins and meanings to consider. Bolin may have originated as a Swedish surname, used to describe someone “from the farm.” Other sources link Bolin to the German first name Baldo, meaning “bold,” a sign that baby Bolin will have the courage to conquer any obstacle. If your Bolin is always excited to pack their bags and go on an adventure, their name’s meaning in Norse might explain why. A combination of the words boll, meaning “bag,” and in, meaning “in,” Bolin translates to “in the bag,” so get ready for lots of trips and travels! With their fearlessness and love of adventure, your little Bolin may even remind you of The Legend of Korra character, Bolin, who shares their name.
