Little ones are wild at heart, and what better way to celebrate their spirit for adventure than with gorgeous Goran? Goran is a boy’s name that comes from the South Slavic and Croatian word gora for “mountain” or “forest in the highlands.” For the mini trekker who takes extra care on their conquests, it can also be a diminutive of Grigoran, a Romanian variant of Gregory, meaning “watchful” or “alert.” Also meaning “farmer” in Swedish and Greek, Goran is about as outdoorsy a name as you can get!
