Gryta

If you've been cooking up name options for your newest addition, Gryta is one to keep in the mix. A feminine name, Gryta is a shortened form of Magryta, a German variant of a very familiar Greek title. In Margaret and its Greek root margarites, Gryta finds its meaning of "pearl," describing the luminous, moon-like gem that forms in the shells of various water-dwelling creatures. In Swedish, gryta is a word that translates to "pot" or "stew," so perhaps your tiny tot will arrive into the world with an immense appetite for joy, fun, and a bit of mischief (from time to time!).
