In case you missed it, Libra season started on Sept 23, and now, we’re thinking of the best Libra baby names for your fall babies!
With a reputation for fairness and a great love of beauty, Librans are arguably the classiest sign of the astrological wheel. An air sign and a cardinal sign of leadership, Libra is ruled by the lovey-dovey planet of Venus (known as “the morning star”). It’s symbolized by a set of scales (the weighing kind), as Librans value balanced thinking and justice above all. Librans also like to keep the peace at all costs. They’re charming people, sociable and elegant, so growing up in a harmonious environment is a must for these kids. A melodious name doesn’t hurt, either!
Got a little Libra on the way? Don’t stress. We’ve got some ideas for perfect Libra names for your late-September or early-October baby.
Below, check out these gorgeous, unique Libra baby names.
Libra Baby Girl Names
Adalet
Turkish for “justice, fairness.” Rare, but not too much of a mouthful, either, and there’s always the sweet “Ada” as a nickname.
Alexandria
Libras are all about justice, so what’s better than a Greek name that literally means “defending men?”
Annissa/Anissa
Arabic for “gracious.” Her tea parties will be legendary.
Austrina
Get this: Austrina has nothing to do with Austria. In fact, it’s a valley on the planet of Venus. Yes, it also sounds like a cast member of The Hills, but that’s kind of why we dig it.
Autumn
When else can you use this gorgeous girl’s name? Get with it, fall parents.
Charis/Caris
Greek for “giver of graciousness.” How lovely is that?
Cosima
Greek for “perfect order” or “harmony,” with a Euro vibe that should garner her any number of Paris fashion house internships someday.
Danica/Danika
You can thank the Slavs for this “morning star” name (and Danica Patrick for making it cool).
Dove
Because nothing says “peace” like one of these beauties. And if Zooey Deschanel can name her daughter Elsie Otter, and there are Larks, Ravens, and Birdies, you can definitely have a Dove. We say so.
Estella/Stella
Also means “star,” but with that great Tennessee Williams old-timey vibe, all silk slips and vanity tables.
Freya
Freya is such a powerful name, and it’s actually Norse for “a noble woman.”
Gwenydd/Gweneth/Gwyneth
“Morning star,” by way of Wales. You don’t have to spell it like Goop’s fearless leader, but hey, if you vibe with her we’re not going to judge. Or you could just call her Gwyn!
Hannah
Hebrew for “grace.” You also can’t get more balanced than a name that’s a beautiful palindrome.
Harmony
Harmony is the perfect name for your balanced, loyal Libra gal!
Irene
Greek for “messenger of peace.” No Burn Books with this dear girl, no way.
Jemima
Hebrew for “dove” (also the name of Jemima Kirke, one of our favorite Girls).
Justina
A derivative of “justice,” what better way to celebrate a Libra girl?
Mabel
So vintage, it’s ready for a resurgence. Plus the meaning is perfection: “lovable.”
Melina
Greek gorgeousness, meaning “gentle.”
Nerine
Greek for “sea-born,” which is a nice touch for a sign with a ruling planet personified by a goddess who rises up out of the sea on a half shell.
Paloma
Spanish for “dove.” Who knew? Besides Picasso, we mean. And some bartender, who turned it into a cocktail.
Rebecca/Rebeccah
Hebrew for “peacemaker.” A perennial classic and a serious contender for any Libra girl.
Serena
Meaning “serene,” of course. Which you will surely be at 3 a.m., when your new Libra bebe is fast asleep, per usual. (Well, we can dream with you.)
Violet/Violette/Violetta
Turns out Violet is Venus’s flower, making this the perfect floral name for your new daughter.
Zulema/Zulima
Possibly Arabic, possibly Hebrew, this pretty name means “peace” — and nicknames include Lee, Lima, or simply Z.
Libra Baby Boy Names
Alfred
An Old English name long out of vogue but worth another look in our book. Meaning “good counsel,” it also offers a sweet nickname: Alfie.
Avidan
This one comes from the Hebrew for “God is just,” and we love the surprisingly modern edge and sleek sound of it.
Bellamy
A fantastic gender-fluid option, Bellamy is French for “beautiful friend,” something Librans make in spades.
Calum/Callum
Who doesn’t groove on a bit of Scottish, a bit of Gaelic in their baby name list? Calum hails from the highlands, carrying the gorgeous meaning of “dove-like, peaceful.”
Carey
Cornish for “beloved.” Awwww.
Coleman
Well, if it sounds like a Calum and it coos like a Calum, it must be a Calum: Yep, Coleman also means dove, derived from Latin.
Conrad
Strong and sensible, Conrad’s Teutonic mojo definitely backs up its “wise counselor” meaning. This kid wouldn’t let anyone get bullied on the pre-K playground.
Daniel
A Biblical classic, meaning “my judge is God.” (Danielle is lovely for girls too.)
Gareth
You don’t have to speak Welsh to read this one out loud, whew. Gareth may be Welsh’s easiest word to pronounce, and its meaning couldn’t be more Libran: “gentle man.”
Justice
What better name than Justice? It’s literally English for “the quality of being just, impartial, or fair.”
Justin
Hey, it’s not just for J.T., you know. But Justus and Justice are other derivatives that are fair game.
Memphis
Memphis means “Enduring and beautiful,” and that’s such a Libra-coded name your baby will fully embrace.
Miles
Is it Latin? Teutonic? Both? Sources disagree, but the meaning is supposedly “grace” or “mild.”
Ramiro
Spanish, meaning “a great judge.” But not, you know, judgey.
Ramon
Another Spanish winner, “protecting judge.” We don’t know what that is, but surely the world needs more of them. Ramona is a great choice for a girl, too.
Renfred
“Mighty but peaceful,” from Old English, back when there was more might than peace. Again: We vote for a world full of Ramons and Renfreds, stat, please.
Romeo
If it’s good enough for David and Victoria Beckham, it’s good enough for your baby. Librans are swoony, and this is the ultimate swoony name. We’ll just forget about that messy ending, okay?
Solomon
A wise and peaceful king is a perfect namesake for any Libra. And Sol is a nickname with serious old-school swag.
Truman
If there’s one thing Libras are, it’s loyal and true; which makes Truman, which literally means “loyal one” perfect.
