Legend of Zelda Baby Names
Share
Copy link
names, places, and more from all of the Legend of Zelda games. Many of these names are unisex, so I just put it as what it is in the game or what I would choose it as, but don’t let that limit you! I tried to keep some of the weirder names out, but some of the main characters with odd names I kept for being so notorious to the game.
- Agitha
- Beetle
- Chancellor
Origin:
EnglishMeaning:
"chief secretary"Description:
Of the names derived from titles, this is one of the least obvious (unless you are of German extraction). Chancellor also has the attraction of offering the exciting - and very on-trend - nickname Chance.
- Cia
Origin:
Diminutive of CynthiaDescription:
What's Cia short for? Cynthia or most any other C-name. Stylish in its sleek Mia-Nia minimalist feel, but may remind some of the Central Intelligence Agency.
- Cole
Origin:
EnglishMeaning:
"swarthy, coal black"Description:
Cole -- a short name that embodies a lot of richness and depth -- has long been associated with the great songwriter Cole Porter. It's quite popular in Scotland.
- Ciela
- Daltus
- Daphnes
- Eldin
- Epona
- Fairy
Origin:
English word nameMeaning:
"fairy"Description:
Fairy's reputation as a slur directed at gay men takes it off the table as a baby name option. Go with Pixie or Faye instead.
- Faron
Origin:
EnglishMeaning:
"handsome servant"Description:
Faron, a soft and gentle name, has a diverse group of references. There was the medieval Saint Faron, Bishop of Meaux (who has given his name to a cheese); Faron Young, a colorful midcentury country singer known as The Hillbilly Heartthrob, and a character from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.
- Floria
- Fi
- Ganon
- Ghirahim
- Hilda
Origin:
GermanMeaning:
"battle woman"Description:
Short for Brunhilda, the operatic Valkyrie of Teutonic legend, Hilda still has not quite shaken off that image that image. Though with the resurgence of Matilda, she might just have a bit of a comeback.
- Hylia
- Hylian
- Ilia
Origin:
Variation of Iliana or Julia, Greek, Basque, Bulgarian "from Illium or Troy; youthful or sky father; Yahweh is God"Meaning:
"from Illium or Troy; youthful or sky father; Yahweh is God"Description:
Three syllables in only four letters is quite a feat, but that's exactly what you get with Ilia, a versatile, unisex option with various origins. It could derive from the Greek Iliana, which could denote someone from Illium, or it could be a feminine form of Ilian, a form of Elijah. Alternatively, it is a Basque form of Julia, or a Bulgarian feminine form of Ilya, with again links back to Elijah. Currently a gender neutral option in the US, it may be exclusively masculine elsewhere.
