Meaning: The color pink; The flower Dianthus; A small person; To peck
Once associated with heroism, the color pink is now an everlasting symbol of love and girl power. Why not bring out baby's inner badass from the start and name them Pink? This rare, feminine choice is rooted in the quintessential garden flower, Dianthus, nicknamed pinks. It may also derive from the Middle English word pinch, referring to a small person, and the German picken, meaning "to peck." Nowadays, Pink will bring to mind American singer-songwriter Alecia Beth Moore Hart, known professionally as P!nk. This edgy pop goddess will inspire baby to be authentic, speak the truth, and live by their own rules!
