Sacnicte
Origin:Mexican
Meaning:White plumeria
A new love story is about to blossom, one where Sacnicte becomes your favorite name. This feminine moniker stems from Yucatec Maya, a Mayan language spoken on the Yucatán Peninsula. As a combination of the elements sak, meaning "white," and nikte', meaning "plumeria," Sacnicte translates to "white plumeria." With their fragrant petals and delightful appearance, plumeria flowers are a beautiful addition to gardens in warm climates. They even inspired the name of the princess, Sac-Nicte, whose love story is told in the Mayan legendary tale of Sac-Nicte and Canek. As your Sacnicte grows up, their name can be a reminder to always make room for love, joy, and friendship to bloom.
