Branch

US Popularity Rank: 5957

Origin: British

Meaning: Branch of a tree; Extension

For the newest addition to your family tree, it doesn't get much more literal than this. This English, French, and Latin boy’s last-name-turned-first name means “branch of a tree” or “extension.” This can show how baby will grow into their own person while still being a part of your family. Much like a river will branch out on its own, your little one will feel nurtured enough to carve their own path as they find where they want to put down roots. It's also a great nature name to help baby always feel connected to the world around them. Baby Branch will be in great company with the likes of American singer-songwriter Michelle Branch and American footballer Cliff Branch.
