If baby is the most precious thing in the world to you, then consider a name that is just as exquisite. Oriole is a lovely gender-neutral name of Latin origin, meaning “golden.” Oriole has the same root as the Latin name Aurelia, and is also synonymous with the bright and beautiful bird that was named for its distinctive golden colouring. Giving baby this name is a golden opportunity for them to stand out on the playground for all the right reasons and extol the virtues of this original name. You might also recognize this name from the character on the TV show Beulah or the children’s book Next Spring an Oriole by Gloria Whelan.
