If you want to bring out baby's caring side, the masculine name Hersh will do the trick beautifully. It's short for Hershel, which means "deer" in Yiddish. While your little one may not roar like a lion, this mellower animal name will make them a loyal and fiercely protective friend. Or, perhaps they'll have a sweet tooth and love to shower you with Hershey's kisses!
