Malachite

Inspired by the richly green precious gem, Malachite can be used as a gender-neutral given name. Greek in origin, Malachite means "mallow," and the stone was named after the mallow plant. Brilliantly verdant, malachite crystals have striking banded patterns and colors that range from deep evergreen to a bright emerald. In spirituality, malachite is considered a deep healing crystal and may be a stone of major transformation. Though malachite is not a traditional birthstone, it's most often associated with Taurus, an earth sign with the symbol of a bull. If you're looking for a unique baby name that channels the very essence of nature, Malachite may just be the one.
