Naming a baby is a special moment for many parents, and it's an opportunity to convey something meaningful. For those affected by cancer, there are many inspiring cancer-themed baby names derived from nature, mythology, and literature that can bring hope and strength. From the natural world, consider unisex names like Skye, Sage, or River. These names evoke feelings of serenity and healing. For boys specifically, names like Oakley or Aspen evoke strength and resilience. In mythology, there are a variety of inspiring names to choose from. Apollo is a name with Greek origins meaning “manly” that symbolizes strength in the face of adversity. Athena is another strong choice for girls that speaks to wisdom and courage. For literature lovers, you may want to look to some favorite characters for inspiration. Atticus Finch from To Kill a Mockingbird is an excellent choice for boys that symbolizes courage in the face of adversity. Daisy Buchanan from The Great Gatsby is another great option for girls; her name symbolizes new beginnings after hardship. At the end of the day, whatever name you choose should be one that speaks to your own family’s values and experiences with cancer. Whatever it may be, it will be sure to bring hope and strength into your home!
