Origin:Mexican
Meaning:First sun; First day
While you may use the Gregorian calendar to determine baby Yaxkin's birthday, their name stems from an entirely different dating system. The seventh month of the Mayan calendar is known as Yaxk'in, inspiring this gender-neutral name. Derived from the Classic Maya elements yax, meaning "first," and k'in, meaning "sun" or "day," Yaxkin translates to "first sun" or "first day." If your tiny bundle arrives between the dates of November 23rd and December 12th, Yaxkin will be their Mayan zodiac sign. Representing new beginnings and radiant self-expression, Yaxkin is a fitting sign (and name) for a little one who'll determine their own destiny.
