Give baby a sparkling name to match their dazzling personality, like Jacinth. This feminine moniker stems from the flower and the gem of the same name, tracing back to the same soil as the hyacinth. Both came from the Greek Hyakinthos, which also derived from the blossom. The jacinth gem is an orange-red color, supposedly strengthening its holder's heart and bringing them wealth. The flower is equally alluring with a powerful, sweet scent. With a name like Jacinth, baby will be able to bloom and grow into their own person. You will certainly be as enchanted by baby Jacinth as people are by the smell of the flowers.
