Whit is a gender-neutral name with English roots that can have a variety of meanings. On its own, Whit can mean “pale,” “white,” and more specifically, “white-haired.” These colors can be found in all sorts of places in the natural world—think of white sandy beaches, pale flower petals, falling snowflakes, and even the white hair of a mature, aging soul. This can inspire your little one to explore the world around them and work towards the knowledge that comes from a long life. While Whit is an adorable name on its own, it can also be used as a sweet nickname for classic monikers like Whitney, Whitman, and Whitaker.
