Lavender

Lavender is a girl's name of English origin. As a last name, it comes from the Latin word lavandarius and can mean “washerman” or “launderer.” While these meanings give the name a clean, polished, vibe, Lavender will most likely remind you of the light purple blossom. This beautiful flower, known for its soothing scent and charming appearance, could help baby find their own signature in the world. Fragrant and gorgeously purple, lavender plants are beloved across the globe. Lavender is also the birth flower for the star sign Gemini, making it an ideal appellation for your May or June baby.

It’s a blooming favorite in The Bump community, with user Nurse714 sharing, “My guilty pleasure name is Lavender. I fell in love with that name when watching Matilda.” Whether you want baby to have a calming presence or can already tell they are super chill, a sweet name like Lavender won't lead you astray.
