We Asked ChatGPT To Give Us a List of Baby Names Inspired by Taylor Swift—and It Did Not Disappoint
From spot-on to hilarious, we can't get over these T.Swift baby names.
Everyone is talking about ChatGPT these days–it's all about how AI is coming after every industry and taking over. Well, we decided to test its skill with unique baby name ideas—namely, baby names inspired by Taylor Swift. After all, we have plenty of baby naming content on Parade that we're proud of, and if AI is going to eventually beat us at this game, we wanted a closer look at this technologically-advanced competitor.
Luckily, we're not too worried after seeing a couple of its unironically hilarious suggestions. We've left off a handful of the options it provided (like "1989," "Teardrops" and "Imaginary") because, um, as T.Swift herself would say, "I think there's been a glitch." However, there are actually some monikers that truly shimmer as well, so we're excited to show off some of the ideas on its list!
45 Baby Names Inspired by Taylor Swift
1. Taylor
Right off the bat, you can count on ChatGPT to be super creative.
2. Britany
Although this name doesn't seem like an obvious choice to be on the list, we can totally see it—especially with the unique spelling.
3. Coney
If you can look past its association with Coney dogs, this name inspired by "Coney Island" (sing it with us now: "The fast times, the bright lights, the merry go") could actually be a cute name for your future Swiftie.
4. Evermore
While it could be another "Glitch," we could honestly see this taking off eventually. Although, if it were up to us, we'd simply suggest: Ever or Everly.
5. Hazel
Do you feel a lavender haze(l) creeping up on you?
6. Holly
She did grow up on a Christmas tree farm, after all.
7. Ingrid
We can definitely see the connection between Taylor and classic Hollywood star Ingrid Bergman.
8. James
This is one of the best Taylor Swift-inspired baby names! Think about it, not only did Tay use the name in the epic love triangle expressed throughout folklore (featuring the names of Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds' kids), she herself was named after singer/songwriter James Taylor.
9. Kaleb
One of Taylor's good friends, model Lily Aldridge, is married to Caleb Followill (the Kings of Leon frontman). And who said the Kardashians have a monopoly on K names, anyway?
10. Lorna
We can't be the only ones who first thought of The Lorax when we saw this name...right?

11. Marjorie
Excuse us while we listen to this track again and sob.
12. Nelly
This takes us back to when Taylor, Nelly and HAIM sang "Hot in Herre" together.
13. Ocean
Taylor writes about water enough to confirm that this trending name makes perfect sense.

14. Paris
As either a first-time parent or a parent of multiples, you'll definitely feel that line: "I'm so in love that I might stop breathing" from "Paris" off of Midnights.
15. Quinn
We don't see this name enough, TBH. We're on board!
16. Rebekah
This is another great name option, since "the last great american dynasty" is actually about a real woman named Rebekah Harkness.
17. Sadie
After the talented Sadie Sink, the star of All Too Well: The Short Film.
18. Valentine
Not only was Taylor one of the stars of Valentine's Day, we know she has a thing for love and holidays (which was made extra clear in the lyric: "I want your midnights, but I'll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year's Day."
19. Willow
The kickoff song to evermore is the perfect kickoff to this upcoming stage of parenting!
20. Yellow
This feels a little bit like when we first heard "Apple" announced as a baby name. But with Ms. Swift's history of wearing gorgeous yellow dresses along with her affinity for the term "golden" in her lyrics, we can almost see this as a baby name option.
21. Zara
Meaning "radiance," we love this unique moniker inspired by Tay-Tay.
22. August
The eighth track of folklore might just happen to be first on your own baby-naming list.
23. Bella
While it's kind of giving Twilight vibes, we're honestly here for it.
24. Carolina
Just like her song from Where the Crawdads Sing!
25. Harper
She's been on the cover of Harper's Bazaar, after all.
26. Blake
This is a sweet way to pay tribute to one of Taylor's greatest BFFs—Blake Lively.
27. Edie
Talk about a cute twist on another bestie's name, Ed Sheeran!
28. Lorelei
The fandoms of Gilmore Girls and Taylor Swift have major overlap, so this works (we like the unique spelling too)!
29. Pearl
Sure, she's worn pearl necklaces and earrings, but we can also totally see this old-fashioned name fitting Tay's general aesthetic too.
30. Grace
One way to be in a "State of Grace" is by choosing this name for your daughter!
31. Amelia
Much like Taylor Swift, Amelia Earhart was another major trailblazer for women.
32. Reed
We're a little surprised "reed" wasn't incorporated into the lyrics of "Carolina." But anyway, this is kind of a cute nod to Taylor singing the word "red" in an elongated way.
33. Ellie
It's a bit awkward, but Taylor Swift and singer Ellie Goulding both dated Calvin Harris.
34. Olive
Close to Olivia (one of Taylor's cats), but with a more creative flair.
35. Benjamin
You already know Taylor adores this name since it's the name of one of her cats.
36. Daisy
And if you use the middle name "May," your little flower will have the full inspiration from "You're On Your Own, Kid." We can hear the future school send-offs now: "So long, Daisy May!"

37. Felix
"X marks the spot," we imagine Taylor singing (like in "Getaway Car") as she writes this name.
38. Finlay
Fans likely recognize this name from Tay's grandmother's name: Marjorie Finlay.
39. Emma
Actress Emma Stone and Taylor used to be quite close, but we also like the Jane Austen vibes this moniker gives off.
40. Ryan
While she's super close to Blake Lively's hubs, Ryan Reynolds, we could see this typically-male moniker being perfect for a future Swiftie girl.

41. Ruby
There are already "red lips and rosy cheeks," so why not throw a Ruby baby name into the mix? Plus, she references rubies in "Maroon" off of Midnights.
42. Josephine
Little Women's Josephine March is another strong, witty, creative female lead, and we're kind of obsessed with this inspiration.
43. Archer
Taylor is the self-proclaimed "Archer" in the infamous Track 5 of Lover, so we love the vulnerability this name carries.
44. Kennedy
Who could forget the polka dot fits on those beachy dates with Conor Kennedy?
45. Ivy
The lyric "your touch brought forth an incandescent glow," is enough to make us fully on board with this T.Swift song-inspired name.
Long story short, we're fans of this list!
