Chalcedony

While the chalcedony crystal is found in abundance around the world, it makes for a unique name choice! Chalcedony is considered a feminine name that has origins in Greek and Latin. It stems from the Latin calcedonius and Greek khalkēdōn, a word that is only ever mentioned in Revelation 21:19-21. This passage describes the magnificent walls of New Jerusalem, adorned with every kind of precious stone—including agate, sapphire, emerald, and, of course, chalcedony. Though it comes in many patterns and colors like green, blue, and purple, chalcedony is most simply described as a cloudy variety of quartz. In spirituality, some believe chalcedony has a calming effect and peaceful vibe, which can remind baby Chalcedony to take each day at their own pace.
