Am I right? 

No matter where—or who—you turn to for baby name ideas, there’s one thing you have to remember: think about it long and hard because your little one will carry that name forever. Unless, of course, they change it when they get older.

In this article, we’re focusing on baby name ideas considered auspicious this Year of the Ox, which began on February 12th, 2021, and will end on January 30th, 2022. Whether you follow the Chinese calendar or know the zodiac animals, one more source of baby name ideas is always welcome, right?

Best Year of the Ox Baby Names

According to Chinese astrology, choosing a baby name has a lot to do with analyzing its energy charter. The goal is to use names that correct energy imbalances and create harmony between the five elements of natureWood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. 

This 2021, which is the Year of the Metal Ox, Karma Weather reports that the primary deficient elements are Wood and Fire. As such, names inspired by those two elements would help correct the energy flow in your baby’s birth chart.

However, Wood and Fire aren’t the only elements creating imbalance this year. All the elements are found to be weak for February, May, and July. This means that baby names based on the five elements are great choices if your baby is born during those months.

Now that you know why it’s essential to consider your baby’s astral birth chart, here comes the fun partchoosing your baby’s name. When choosing a name based on one of the elements, it doesn’t mean you choose a name that translates to wood. Instead, consider names related to trees, plants, forests, or even flowers. For the Water element, names related to ocean, river, or beach are great choices. Get the idea, Mamas?

To help you out, we’ve rounded up some baby names for boys and girls based on the five elements of the Chinese zodiac that you can consider for your little one:

  • Find out meanings. It’s always a delight to share and hear stories about the meaning behind a name, so make sure you know what it stands out for. The last thing you want is to discover later that the name you picked stands for something negative despite how beautiful it sounds.
  • Say the name out loud. Does the name go well with your baby’s last name? Does it flow well together?
  • You don’t have to skip the classics. Besides, you can always add a second name or use lesser-known classic names.
  • Be wary of trends. Ask yourself if you want to intentionally misspell or omit vowels in your baby’s because it’s the trend. Creativity is great, but not at the expense of making your baby’s name a joke.
