For baby’s old soul, Aldus ticks every box. This masculine name was prevalent in Middle English and dates back to the Old English and Anglo-Saxon era. Adapted from Aldous and possibly Ealdgyth, Aldus means “old” or “old fighter.” A champion who has survived decades on the battlefield boasts impressive skill and courage and may even be considered superhuman. Aldus certainly has a mysterious, wizardry flair that will flow naturally with baby’s maturity as they blossom.
