Hyacinth

Hyacinth is a girl’s name of Greek origin. If you’ve got a real buzz for botany, you might think of the hyacinth flower, a beautiful bloom that bursts in the spring. But the narrative behind its name could also mean mythical wonders for your little one. Hyacinth is said to flow from the Greek name Hyacinthus, carried by a character in Greek lore whose handsome looks fanned a flame in Apollo’s heart. Hyacinthus would later lose his life, but Apollo was said to revive his memory through the hyacinth flower. Their legendary love may be long gone, but with a name like Hyacinth, it’ll never be forgotten.
