80+ Perfect Baby Names for Your Little Virgo
Have a baby Virgo on the way? You do if your due date lies between August 23rd and September 22nd. Need a perfect baby name? Relax, we’ve got you.
Sometimes this sun sign gets a bad rap for being too picky and too critical, when in fact, it’s one of the most helpful, thoughtful signs of the zodiac, often shunning the spotlight and preferring instead to live a modest life with pure motives. As an earth sign, Virgos are known for their grounded common sense and attention to detail. Not to mention they are industrious, the hardest workers of the zodiac. Sure, they may need your help to learn to relax, as they tend to notice — and worry about — the little details the rest of the world seems to miss. But overall, this is a delightful sign that deserves a delightful name — and that whole “virgin” meaning is only one angle of a myriad of ways to interpret Virgo.

For girls:
Prudence (or Prudie or Prue, how sweet are those?)
Patience
Phoebe

Actual Historic Virgins
For very literal folks who can’t get past Virgo being the sign of the virgin; consider this a fascinating history lesson.
Elizabeth I, the Virgin Queen of England (although her virgin status has been debated by historians)
Joan of Arc, just forget all about that fiery death
Nikola Tesla, apparently no real electricity going on in his life
Hans Christian Andersen
Isaac Newton
Artemis, the Greek virgin goddess. Now that’s some next-level virginity, y’all.
