Though they might be just a tiny tot, sweet Spirit's presence, passion, and personality will be larger than life. The English word "spirit" describes the animating force found in all living things, so as a gender-neutral first name, it celebrates the parts of a person that can be sensed rather than seen or felt. Ultimately, the word "spirit" derives from the Latin spiritus, meaning "breath" or "energy," two essentials for sustaining life and maintaining health. With a name like Spirit, your little one will know that it's equally important to care for and nourish what's within, by doing things that excite them, seeking out challenging experiences, and meeting people who make their soul sing.
