For anyone excitedly awaiting the arrival of their own heir, we know of no better source to draw inspiration from than this most distinguished series. We know you are sure to find your very own diamond among this list of Bridgerton baby names. It is with great honor that we present to you today all of the inspiration you could possibly dream of. Forge on, dear reader, for 40+ of our favorite Bridgerton baby names.
Bridgerton Baby Names for Girls
Alice
Along with a new epic love story, season three welcomes new members to the Ton. Club owner Will Mondrich and his wife Alice find themselves hosting fabulous balls for all of society after a twist of fate. This classic feminine name fittingly means “noble.”
Amelia
Many of us were hooked on the series after watching Simon and Daphne unexpectedly fall in love in season one. While in the Netflix series we’re introduced to their first child as a boy named Augie, the book series introduces their first child as a girl named Amelia. From this, we can assume that in both cases they followed in Daphne’s parents’ footsteps of naming their children in alphabetical order.
Agatha
While we know her affectionately as spunky Lady Danbury, she also holds the lovely first name of Agatha. This name of Greek origin means “honorable,” and was a popular choice in the early 20th century.
Belinda
The second child of Simon and Daphne—following their alphabetical theme—is this beautiful name meaning “pretty one.” We can’t think of a more fitting name for any baby girl.
Cressida
The quintessential “mean girl” in seasons one and two, Cressida Cowper’s storyline takes quite the turn in season three. Most either love to hate her or hate to love her—either way, she has a lovely moniker meaning “golden” that has links to Greek mythology.
Caroline
The third of Simon and Daphne’s five children in the book series is another girl. The beautiful name Caroline means “beloved and valuable,” which we know will be exactly what your dearest daughter will mean to you.
Charlotte
We know we weren’t the only ones who couldn’t binge Queen Charlotte fast enough. The tale of the young queen’s marriage to King George tugged on our heartstrings in the best way. This name has gained significant momentum in recent years as a top baby girl name choice, and we don’t expect to see that change anytime soon.
Daphne
Of course, the feminine protagonist we hold such affection for from season one had to be included on this Bridgerton baby names list. Meaning “laurel tree,” this highly feminine name is certainly fit for a diamond.
Edwina
We simply must draw inspiration from the character whom the Queen dubbed season two’s diamond, Miss Edwina Sharma. Though she ultimately may not have won Anthony’s heart, a little girl with this name meaning “prosperous friend” is sure to win the affection of anyone.
Eloise
If there’s a future season we’re especially looking forward to it’s Eloise’s love story. The fifth Bridgerton sibling’s name means “famous warrior,” which we believe is quite fitting for a girl with so much spunk.
Francesca
You may know her as Bridgerton sibling number six, especially if you read the book When He Was Wicked. Simply meaning “free,” this Italian name will ensure a little girl grows up to have a carefree spirit. We certainly loved seeing more and more of Francesca in season three.
Genevieve
A character that’s easy to love is the most popular modiste in the Ton. This feminine and beautiful French name means “woman of the family” and “of the race of women.”
Hyacinth
The baby of the Bridgerton family is none other than Hyacinth. Sharing a title with the flowering perennial, this floral name fittingly holds the meaning of “the flower.”
Joanna
While only mentioned a handful of times, Joanna is Cressida Cowper’s aunt who lives in the English countryside. We can only imagine she leads a quiet life without access to the Ton’s gossip. Her lovely name means “God is gracious.”
Julia
Where wouldst thou be without the author herself? The Bridgerton book series was written by none other than Julia Quinn. She crafted some of our favorite love stories, so it’s only right to draw inspiration from the mastermind herself.
Kate
We fell in love with Anthony’s season two love interest almost as quickly as you’ll fall in love with your little girl of this name. It’s no wonder why Anthony’s heart, the most curious of instruments, was captured by someone having this name meaning “pure.”
Marina
Straight “from the sea” is this nautical name we grew to love in season one. We can only hope to see more of this complex character as the show goes on.
Penelope
Why not take the name of Lady Whistledown herself? Penelope is an adorably trending name that means “weaver” and gives a nod to one of our favorite—and most crucial—Bridgerton characters. See her love story unfold in season three.
Phillipa
While she may be one of the more unlikeable characters in the show, Philippa Featherington’s name certainly is not. Equestrians can appreciate this feminine version of the name Philip, uniquely meaning “lover of horses.”
Portia
The head Featherington can be seen as the original Kris Jenner, naming all of her daughters with the same first letter as her name. With names like these, can we really blame her, though? The name Portia has long been seen as a symbol of wealth, beauty, and brilliance.
Prudence
Prudence Featherington also might not be a favorite character, but we can’t help but to love this strong name. Of Latin origin meaning “caution” or “discretion,” this name has started to make a small revival in recent years.
Siena
You may remember her from season one as the character who deserved more. Siena Rosso was the stunning opera singer who held Anthony’s affection for a time. From Italian origin, this name both relates to the historical Tuscan city and means “reddish brown.”
Tilley
Word in the Ton is that Benedict Bridgerton has a new love interest in Lady Tilley Arnold. While often used as a nickname for Matilda, the name itself also means “battle-mighty.”
Violet
We, of course, had to include the matriarch of the family and original Viscountess. The highly feminine name appropriately means “purple.”
Bridgerton Baby Names for Boys
Albion
In the series, both of Penelope Featherington’s older sisters eventually wed—and Philippa finds a match in one Albion Finch. This nearly ancient name means “white land.”
Anthony
Season two of Bridgerton is all about the family’s firstborn son and viscount. While we do fancy the title of Lord Bridgerton, this classic Latin name meaning “priceless one” feels more fitting for a little boy.
Benedict
While the Netflix series may have skipped Benedict’s love story for the time being, the third book in the series focuses on the complicated second sibling. Though we haven’t seen him in the spotlight yet, viewers have grown to adore him. This name dates back to the sixth century, and means “blessed.”
Colin
We all know season three’s sibling focus has become an expert in the art of the swoon. The Gaelic name of the third Bridgerton sibling means “cub” or “pup.”
David
In the books, Daphne and Simon’s first son and fourth child is named David Bassett. A classic name with Biblical ties, David has been a highly-popular name for boys since as early as the 1880s.
Edmund
Viewers were shown the tragic demise of the Bridgerton patriarch during season two. The dashing viscount fittingly held this name meaning “wealthy protector.”
Edward
Bridgerton may be the ultimate source for classic baby names—like the name Edward, which is the moniker Simon and Daphne gave their fifth child in the books. Coming from two Old English words, the masculine name means “wealthy guard,” and perhaps is a nod to Daphne’s late father.
George
We were grateful to get to know more about King George in the Queen Charlotte series, and had to include this classic option on our Bridgerton baby names breakdown. As one of the oldest names on our list, it’s no surprise that this title meaning “earth worker” has always been a popular option.
Gregory
Viewers of the Netflix series know relatively little (so far!) about the youngest Bridgerton son, Gregory, but readers may remember him from the eighth book in the series, On the Way to the Wedding. This strong name means “watchful” and “vigilant.”
Harry
Prudence Featherington finds her match in the dashing Harry Dankworth. A masculine name of German origin, it means “home ruler.”
Henry
Henry Granville is a distinguished London artist who captures the attention of Benedict in season one. Fitting for a lord, this name means “house ruler.”
Herman
Watching Queen Charlotte gave us a glimpse into the life of a young Lady Danbury and her marriage with Lord Herman—for better or for worse. This name with a brave connotation means “army man.”
Martin
This name meaning “god of war” is inspired by the quiet but endearing love interest of Francesca in season three, the Earl of Kilmartin.
Marcus
Rumors are floating around social circles that the new charismatic character known as Marcus Anderson may have caught the eye of the Bridgerton family matriarch, Violet. This Latin name has ties to Roman mythology and refers to the god of fertility.
Quinn
The surname of the series’ author is a great option meaning “wise” or “reason.” This also happens to be a great gender-neutral baby name to consider for either a boy or a girl.
Simon
There’s no denying the dashing Duke of Hastings, the rakish Simon Basset, nudged this vintage name back into the public eye after season one.
Theo
Just when we thought no one would ever pique Eloise’s interest, we were introduced to print shop worker Theo Sharpe in season two. This snappy name means “God’s gift,” and also happens to make for a great middle name option.
