When baby makes their entrance into the world, the next task is to find them a fitting name. The world is your oyster, and you can go Wilde with it! Adding an -e to this fierce German boy’s name gives it an artistic flourish like that of poet, playwright, and author Oscar Wilde. Known for his elaborate and humorous style, perhaps a baby named in his honor will show a similar affinity for entertainment. The name means “wild,” “untamed,” or “uncivilized,” making it an ideal choice to inspire baby to go out in the world and embrace their freedom. The name only hit the charts in 2009, giving your wild one ample opportunity to make this unique title their own.
