Fine and sweet like sugar, your little Caster will have a keen eye for the details in life. While the name brings to mind the common household confectionery used for baking, Caster also has roots in Greek. Used as a South African variant of Castor, the name originates from the Greek Kastor, meaning "to excel" or "to shine," derived from kekasmai. It may also connect to the Greek word for "beaver," further supported by the French and Latin Castor. In mythology, Castor and Pollux were twin deities and brothers, emphasizing the importance of sibling love, making this name especially perfect if your little one can look forward to having a brother or sister! These twin brothers also grace the Gemini constellation, making Caster a perfect name for a June-born baby.
