Verbeina is a feminine name of Latin origin to connect baby to the natural beauty of the great outdoors. A variant of Verbena, it translates to “foliage,” “herbage,” “twigs,” and “leaves.” This word historically referred to specific sacred plants used in religious ceremonies, like myrtle, laurel, and olive twigs. Now, you can connect it to a specific family of flowering plants, also called vervain. If you can imagine planting flowers or observing wild blooms with your bundle of joy one day, Verbeina is a verdant choice.
