Southerners love their sweet tea, hush puppies, and fried okra, but even more importantly, they grow up with a love for their history and their strong family bonds. Southern names often bring to mind cotillions, derbies, and well-worn battlefields.

These Southern baby names for boys and girls will reflect your pride of living south of the Mason-Dixon line. The girls' names reflect the femininity and heritage of the South, and the boys' names are rugged and distinguished.

Next to having a healthy baby, there is almost nothing more important than a name that a child can proudly carry throughout their life. This list of uniquely Southern baby names gives you hundreds of great choices for naming your baby with a nod to your great culture and history.

• They're inspired by the first or last names of Civil War figures, such as Lee or Marshall. These names feel historical.

The Importance of a Name

When having a baby, there is a lot of pressure on the parents to name their child appropriately. In extended families where grandparents, uncles, and aunts are close, the expectation that you would name your child after them is high.

This is especially so in Southern families where tradition is highly regarded. If you are under this kind of baby-naming pressure, pick a name that NO ONE in your family has. This way there is no jealousy or awkwardness involved!
