Beautiful, Symbolic Names for Babies
Those unfamiliar with Wiccans often frown on giving Wiccan baby names to infants. However, the names are filled with beauty and symbolism. Because they are so unique, they often invoke an aura of protection and special meaning to the children who wear them. Considered odd by many, Wiccan names have gained in popularity in the last several years. Keep in mind, however, that the name you choose for your child shouldn't encourage ridicule. Don't saddle him with a moniker that creates a label that will be difficult for him to overcome. There are many beautiful names, such as the ones listed above, that can connect your child to the Wiccan world without isolating him from others.
