Representing the start of springtime and fresh beginnings, the month of March is a beautiful time to be born. In fact, there’s so much inspiration when choosing names for March babies, you'll never run out of ideas. We've rounded up some some of the coolest names inspired by this blustery but magical month.
The first day of spring is celebrated around March 20, according to the Farmer's Almanac. (Fun fact: the start of spring is sometimes celebrated on March 21 or even the 19, because seasons don't have an even number of days.) This alone provides you with tons of inspiration — consider a name related to the blooming flowers associated with this season. Even if it's still technically pretty darn cold where you live, this time of year heralds the beauty and blossoms of warmer days ahead. From March holidays — give your kid a name inspired by the color green, and they'll be safe from pinches every St. Patrick's Day! — to the month's zodiac signs, birthstones, and birth flowers, there's no shortage of inspiration for babies born in this gorgeous month filled with growth and change.
Aidan
For babies born after March 20, consider the Aries-inspired baby names. Aidan, which means little fire, according to Baby Names, is a great option for your fire sign.
Ari
As the old saying goes, March "comes in like a lion." Why not choose a name that means lion, such as Ari?
Haruki
Meaning "spring child", the Japanese name Haruki is pretty much perfect for a March baby. Plus, your child gets to share a name with the writer Haruki Murakami, AKA earning all the cool points.
Darratu
Haling from Ethopia, the name Darratu means blooming flower, according to Babynology. It’s a gorgeous take on a floral-inspired name.
Finn
If you want to use the zodiac for inspiration, then there's no shortage of Pisces-inspired names for babies born between February 19 and March 20. It may be a little on the nose, but I love the name Finn for a baby born under the sign of the fish.
Iris
Iris is a Greek name that means rainbow. It’s also the name of a gorgeous flower that can start blooming in late March, according to Garden Design for Living.
Joe
One of the more random holidays in March is National Joe Day, which falls on the 27th, according to Holiday Insights. On this day, it’s totally acceptable to call everyone “Joe,” so why not give your kid a head start? (Jo and Jody are cool variations, too.)

Rachelle
A French name meaning lamb, Rachelle is another sweet choice for your March newborn. It's even more beautiful when spoken aloud.
