95 Free Spirited And Quirky Hippie Baby Names For Girls And Boys

By Samantha

Not every parent wants a name that fits in.

Some parents want a name that wanders. A name that smells like sandalwood and open fields. A name that belongs to someone who will grow up knowing that the rules were always just suggestions. A name that carries the energy of bare feet on warm grass and music playing from somewhere just out of sight.

Hippie names come from nature, from peace, from love, from the cosmos, and from a way of seeing the world that believes beauty is everywhere if you bother to look for it. They are not trying to be impressive. They are trying to be real.

And honestly? A lot of them are making a serious comeback right now. Parents who are done with the same ten names on every list are finding their way back to River and Meadow and Sage and Cosmo. Because those names have something that most names have lost.

They feel alive.

Here are 97 free spirited and quirky hippie baby names for girls and boys.

Every single name on this list belongs to a girl who is going to do things her own way. Who is going to ask why before she says yes. Who is going to find beauty in places other people walk right past.
