As a newborn photographer based in London, I have the privilege of capturing the precious moments of families welcoming their newest members. One of the joys of this work is witnessing the thoughtful process of choosing a name that reflects the essence and spirit of each baby. If you’re expecting an April baby and seeking inspiration for the perfect name, why not consider an April-inspired baby name that embody the vitality and charm of this special month?
April-Inspired Baby Names
When choosing a name, consider not only its sound but also the emotions and imagery it evokes. Whether it’s the freshness of spring, the beauty of blooming flowers, or the resilience of April showers, let the name be a reflection of the magic your little one brings into your world.
April: A classic name that embodies the spirit of the month, signifying rebirth and new beginnings. The Latin origins refer to fertilisation, which makes perfect sense as spring is a time for everything to begin to grow. You could also go for the French version Avril.
Atwell: An English baby name that means ‘lives by the spring’, this is the perfect unusual name for your baby boy.
Birdie: is a girl’s name of English, Swedish origin meaning “bird”. What captures the essence of spring more than the sweet chirping of birds? This charming name evokes the freshness and vitality of April, perfect for your little one
Blossom: Flower-inspired girl’s name that’s a nod to the blooms of spring.
Daisy: Initially a nickname for Margaret, Daisy is the iconic April birth flower symbolising innocence and purity. The name became popular again after Katy Perry named her baby girl Daisy.
Diamond: Inspired by April’s birthstone, symbolising honesty, purity, and resilience.
Lily: One of the most popular English flower names, she might not be the only Lily in the playground, but we’re sure you’ll love her name forever. Named after the Lily of the Valley flower that blooms in April in the UK.
Oliver: Related to the olive tree blossoming in Spring. The biblical olive tree symbolises fruitfulness and beauty and dignity. For a girl, it could be Olivia.
Rain/Raine: You know the saying: “April showers bring May flowers,” making the name Rain (or Rainn) a super cute choice.
Rose: Another popular spring flower, this old-fashioned name is finally having the revival it deserves.
Wesley: With the lovely meaning of “western meadow,” this name of British origin is a great option for a spring-inspired boy name.
