Leithe is a Scottish and Gaelic name for girls. Meaning “broad river,” it’s probably a reference to the Water of Leith, which is the main river flowing through central Edinburgh. Spelled with an extra ‘e,’ Leithe is known as the northwestern part of a German city. Whether or not baby comes from either of these places, this moniker can help baby trust the course of life, because at the end of the day, while the river has many curves, it always reaches the ocean.
