Socrates

A name like Socrates will say a lot about your brilliant baby. It has Greek origins and is the name of one of the world’s most famous philosophers—even considered by many as the founding figure of Western philosophy. He once said that “wonder is the beginning of wisdom,” an encouraging thought for your sweet Socrates as they start out in the world. Derived from the ancient Greek name Σωκρᾰ́της, it means “strong and healthy,” “equipped with a healthy power,” “the savior of the army,” and “wise.” Baby is bound to find plenty of inspiration from such positive definitions, but they only need to look into the history books to see that their name carries with it the weight of wisdom, strength, and a legacy that has shaped minds for centuries.
