If you are searching here and there for the perfect name for baby, Hither may just be for you. A mysterious moniker typically given to girls, Hither’s origins as a name are uncertain. In English, hither is an archaic adverb and adjective signifying “to this place” or “on the near side.” But, its usage as a given name may be traced back to its variant spelling “hether,” which gave way to ties with Heather.
