Names That Mean Music

This unusual word name means a song sung to put infants to sleep, from the components lull as in calm and by as in goodbye. While it's not on record as being used for any actual babies in the US, it's a rhythmic choice and one of those unique baby names with more mainstream nicknames such a Lula and Bee.

This soulful musical name was introduced to the lexicon by Glee actor Darren Criss, who named his daughter Bluesy Belle in 2022. It's a saucy choice that owes something to Beyoncé's Blue, and something to the retro nickname Susie. For the daughter of a musician, Bluesy is a rare yet accessible name.
