Kanon

Kanon is a German and Japanese gender-neutral name for the tot on a spiritual journey. As a German occupational title derived from the Latin canōn and Greek kanōn, Kanon means "clergyman living according to rule." If celebrating your faith is important to you, calling your kiddo Kanon is a lovely way to invite them into your community. In a more general sense, a canon is a “rule or law” or a “decree of the church.” With this in mind, baby Kanon may be encouraged to develop a strong moral compass to guide them through life. Kanon’s Japanese origins link it to kanji with meanings like “sound,” “flower,” “blossom,” “warm,” “one,” “first,” and “to come true,” depending on how they’re written. Like the first flower of spring, your little bud’s arrival marks the beginning of a new era, and Kanon is an extra special choice if baby is the first of your growing family.
