LIVE COLOURFULLY
Looking for a baby name that will ignite a vibrant image every time it’s spoken? How about a colour-inspired name?
Colour has such a strong impact on the emotional body and can invoke images of clear, blue waters, golden sunsets, and sweetly scented flowers.
You can go bold like “Sable” and “Slate,” sophisticated like “Aubergine” and “Grey,” classic and sultry like “Red” and “Scarlett,” or cute with a little whimsy like “Tawny” and “Navy.”
I’ve divided them into gender categories but gender-schmender. Trust your intuition and use the name that feels right.
