300+ Math-Inspired Names That Just Make Sense

As the summer fades into fall and your local store stocks up on the newest stationery, it can only mean one thing—it’s back-to-school season, baby! And, ready or not, you’ve probably already pictured what getting your kiddo prepped and primped for class is going to look like (cue the crazy mornings and last-minute lunch prep).

There are so many ways to make this exciting time of year extra-fun—especially when you’re buckling up for the arrival of a back-to-school-season baby! But our number-one favorite? Choosing a name inspired by a school subject. And not just any subject, but the one—the only—math!

You read that right! Love it or hate it, math is everywhere. And not only does it exist on a whiteboard in a classroom, in your memories of being buried in calculus homework or in your future tot’s textbooks, but in everyday life—in everything from recipes to money to music to travel to sports to tech to time and, yes, even in baby names.

And there are dozens of math names out there that totally make the grade too, whether drawn from world-famous theorists, theorems, concepts or shapes, giving you lots to work with.

So while math might not always be as easy as one-two-three, choosing a mathematical moniker for your newborn certainly can be.
