30 Harmonious Libra Baby Names That Are Balanced and Beautiful

Children with a birthday falling between September 22 and October 23 are born under the sun sign of Libra. Libra is a sign that is characterized by balance. Thus, Libra baby names are neither overly dramatic nor the least bit boring. Names for Libra babies tend to skew more traditional as opposed to the trendier choices of the day. Equality and justice are two concepts that Librans prize and names that relate to them are solid choices for your Libra baby.

Additionally, Libra is a cardinal sign for the air element. That makes names with meanings that relate to air, wind, and breathing appropriate choices as well. Other symbols and things associated with Libra include the planet Venus which governs the sign. The color green and jade are also great inspirations for Libra baby names as they are also associated with the sign. Lastly, the classic rose is a symbol of the sign which makes names that relate to the flower ideal for your Libra girl or boy. If you are searching for the most fitting appellation for your Libra baby, you have come to the right place. Take a look at our list of inspired baby names below!

Libra Baby Names for Girls

Opal

From 1960 until 2017, Opal went completely out of style. This spectacular, vintage-sounding appellation has returned today and is tracking to land in the top 500 this year. The name originated in Sanskrit as a name that means “gem.” Opal is the beautiful, milky birthstone for October making it a great name for a Libra baby who is born in the month.

Rosamel

Rosamel is technically a unisex name but it has a masculine image in most Spanish-speaking communities. Rosamel comes from French and Spanish and means “rose and honey.” Not bad at all! Honey is a popular symbol associated with the Jewish High Holidays that are celebrated in September. Roses, of course, are the flower associated with the Libra sun sign.

Sapphire

Sapphire is an enchanting name that belongs to one of September’s birthstones. The name is derived from Hebrew, Greek, and Latin origins. It means “blue.” Although the name is rather popular in the UK it is still rare in the US. You can help change that, new parents! Sapphire makes for a solid choice for a Libra baby girl born in September.

Libra

Libra is as straightforward as it gets. The name comes from Greek and means “scales” or “balance.” Libra has yet to take off for baby girls but it has potential as an alternative to the hot name Lyra or a spin on the dated classic Libba.

Harmony

Balance and fairness are big ones for Librans and that inspired us to choose the name Harmony. It’s excellent for both boys and girls too! It’s become a popular name for girls, firmly in the top 200 most popular names. We love this name and hope you will consider it for your Libra girl or boy.

Alaina

The Irish name for girls, Alaina can also be spelled, Alana as well. If Harmony is too on the nose for you, consider this name that actually means “harmony.” The Alaina spelling has been a favored option in the US since 1978. It’s a top 200 name for girls today making it established and widespread but not ubiquitous yet.

Nasima

Nasima is our top pick for a Libra name that is air-themed. The name is of Arabic origin and means “breeze” and “fresh air.” Despite being completely accessible this awesome name has never been a popular option in the US. We think it would be a splendid choice for your Libra baby girl.

Jade

While most of us consider Jade to be a name for girls, it is technically a unisex name that a boy can enjoy as well. Jade is a name from Spanish that means “stone of the side.” Jade, the green stone, is said to transmit justice, clarity, and wisdom. Jade is a symbol for the sign of Libra making it a smart choice. The name is in the top 100 most popular names for girls in the US.

Octavia

The month of October is so named because it was the eighth month of the Ancient Romans. Today, it’s the tenth month but you still have an excuse to choose the evergreen name, Octavia. Octavia was a popular choice in the US but it fell off of the charts from the 1930s until the 1970s. This classic has staged a comeback and it is more popular today than ever before! Give it to your Libra baby born in October.

Rosalie

In the 1930s, Rosalie was a hot name for young girls. At number 153 on the list, it wasn’t as common as Mary, but it was really popular. It’s on the rise again today, tracking to best its most popular ranking from the 1930s this year or the next. The name Rosalie has French origins and means “beautiful rose.” The rose connection makes this a ripe option for your Libra girl.

Caoimhe

You will find the name Caoimhe in Gaelic, Scottish, and Irish naming traditions. The root of the name means “beautiful.” The name is pronounced KWEE-va which might prove challenging for parents who are not exactly from the UK. Beauty is a trait most commonly associated with Libra. Governed by Venus, Librans often are beautiful but they prize it in the world around them. Librans are lovers of art, music, nature, and fashion. The more beautiful, the better!

Cosima

You will hear the name Cosima all across Europe but it is only given to a handful of baby girls in the US each year. Cosima originated in Greek, a form of Cosmo that means “order” and “beauty.” These are two qualities that are near and dear to any Libran. If you’re looking for an established appellation that is not popular in the US, Cosima could be your answer.

Milda

Romance is the name of the game for Librans. Chances are you have never encountered the name Milda, and no it’s not related to Mathilda. Milda is a name of Lithuanian origin and it belongs to a deity who is considered the “goddess of love.” This is one of the more offbeat choices but it is far from trendy and is accessible enough to be a great possibility for a Libra baby girl.

Concordia

Concordia is a name of Latin origin that means “harmony” and “peace.” It’s a name that embodies a sigh of relief. Concordia was considered by the ancient Romans to be a deity of peace, the embodiment of the concept. This name is a rare one but it certainly feels especially appropriate for a Libra baby.

Serena

It’s a total mystery to us why more parents are not choosing the name Serena more than they are. It is mildly popular but it feels like it should be at least in the top 100. For starters, it names one of the greatest athletes of all time, Serena Williams. Serena is a name of Latin origin that means “tranquil” and “serene.” It’s a brilliant name for conflict-averse Librans who value peace over most other things.

Libra Baby Names for Boys

Isaeus

Isaeus is a Greek name that is pronounced ih-ZAY-us. Its root means “equality.” The appellation is a perfect, unique alternative to Isaiah. We could think of no more appropriate name for a Libra baby boy, but we will try! Keep reading for even more awesome Libra baby names for boys.

Lugh

Lugh is the Irish god of the harvest, who holds dominion over truth, the law, and the arts. His magic includes a fiery spear and a boat that sails itself. He is celebrated in a pagan festival called Lughnasa. While most will likely assume Lou, Lugh is a name worth defending. It has never been popular in the US which feels completely unreal to us. Thanks to the connection to truth, justice, and the arts, this name feels wholly appropriate for a Libra baby boy.

Jamal

Jamal is a name of Arabic origin that means “beauty.” Librans are often described as the most beauty-obsessed sign. To be clear, Librans are not ruled by vanity, instead, they are attracted to the beauty around them. This includes other people, art, music, and much more. They have their governing planet Venus to thank for it.

Justice

Justice is of the new generation of virtue names that has taken off. The name works perfectly for any Libra baby. Librans value justice and equality so very much that you could not go wrong with this name. We are so pleased that this name which began taking off in the 1990s, has stuck and that now feels handsome and established.

Memphis

Memphis has a history as a name belonging to a Greek and Egyptian place. It means “beautiful” and “endearing.” The name is totally unisex but it is going to far more boys than girls these days. With names like Brooklyn, Austin, York, and Paris all having good runs, why shouldn’t Memphis?

Clement

If you think about it, mercy is a unique form of justice. Clement is a name of Latin origin that means “fair” and “merciful.” The name’s meaning makes it very appropriate for civic-minded Librans. Clement was once a popular choice in the US before it fell from the charts after decades of us in the 1960s. It could be time for a comeback!

Kazuya

Most American parents are not going to be familiar with Kazuya, a name of Japanese origin. The name has the most spectacular meaning for a Libra baby: “peace” and “one harmony.” While likely unfamiliar, the baby name database, Nameberry, says that interest in this name is up by 160% on their site right now. Fortunes for the appellation could be changing here soon!

Rhodes

Expect the name Rhodes to begin to explode in popularity in the next couple of years in the US. The name is said exactly the same as “roads.” It has the Libra connection thanks to its meaning, “where roses grow.” The gentle meaning paired with its strong sound makes it such a balanced and appealing appellation.

Truman

Truman is a name of English origin that means “loyal.” Thanks to the name’s sound, it has a moral, truthful, and honest vibe. These qualities along with loyalty, make it a most appropriate name for your Libra baby boy.

Zed

Zed is a shortened form of the name Zedekiah which comes from Hebrew and means “the Lord is just.” Sure, you could go with Zedekiah but it feels like a mouthful for a baby born today. Zed ranked in the US top 1000 names for boys for one year only, 1894. Zedekiah, unfortunately, has never been a popular choice. We think Zed has a lot going for it, especially that zippy Z beginning. It’s one of our favorite options for your Libra boy.

Cyan

A symbol of Libra is the color green, making names related to the color solid options. Cyan is an English color name that means “bluish green.” We feel Cyan will work great for boys and girls. The name has never been a popular choice in the US but it is totally accessible. One reason we recommended this name for Libra boys is that it can be shortened to the lovable nickname, Cy.

Coro

Coro names a place in Venezuela that originated as an indigenous word that means “wind.” Coro is appropriate for any Libra baby and is considered unisex. Coro has gone unused in the US as a baby name and we hope that more parents learn of its considerable charms.

Linden

One of the lovely Libra baby names inspired by trees and changing leaves, Linden was a mildly popular name prior to the 1950s in the US. It has since slipped and would be a unique and distinct option today. Linden is of English origin, a habitational name for a person living near the “linden tree hill.” A verdant shade tree with magnificently green leaves, the color green is the Libra connection here.

Zephyr

Zephyrus was the Greek god and embodiment of the west wind. Because of its Greek origin, Zephyr means “west wind.” It’s currently a top 1000 option in the UK for boys and it is very quickly catching on in the US. Z-names are super hot right now so expect this name to emerge as a favorite in the coming years. Further, it is a unisex option! That makes it perfect for Libra babies who are the cardinal air sign.

Roosevelt

Roosevelt a name belonging to one of the most influential American presidents, is of Dutch origin and means “field of roses.” Roosevelt feels stately and established although it has slipped in popularity as a given name. Before the 1990s, it was one of America’s most cherished names! The rose connection makes this an excellent Libra name for a baby boy.

There you go! We hope you found these Libra baby names for girls and boys to be worthy options for your balanced little baby. Each one offers special meaning that celebrates the unique time of year your child is born and their wonderful sun sign. If you’d like even more baby name inspiration, take a look at these nature-inspired baby names!

Nature baby names attract so many expecting parents because these appellations are evocative of nature’s splendor, evocative of giant trees, peaceful meadows, rolling brooks, and fluffy animals. Further, nature baby names are largely secular which has emerged as a very attractive feature for baby names with new parents today.

Nature names also express a love for the beauty around us and a respect for the earth we call home. While you may think nature baby names for girls are just flowery names, you better think again! You might also expect nature boy names to be overly butch like Wolf or Stone, but we assure you there are softer choices to be made. We have curated a list of over 100 nature baby names to inspire you on your baby name journey.
