Hiya, parents-to-be!
Thrilled about the arrival of your newborn but stuck on naming choices? Whether you're eager to bring home a boy or a girl or prefer to keep the gender a secret, we've put together a 396+ collection of names starting with 'I'; the list comprises names favoured by celebrities, along with numerous lesser-known gems!
Picking a name might feel like a monumental task, but relax! Mom&Tiny will steer you through this roller coaster, making it a delightful start to your parenting journey. We've got (almost) all the details of names and their deep meanings.
Talking about names brings back a ton of memories. My name is Parul, and I'm the proud mother of a lovely boy called Kabeer. The journey of naming him was one for the books. We started with an extensive name search, scouting site after site, app after app, and tons of YouTube channels. We then curated a shortlist of our favourite names, which kept changing constantly as we added and deleted names from our list.
One constant on our list was the boy name: 'Kabeer'. We were never able to expand our boy shortlist beyond Kabeer. During this phase, I had many animated discussions with Saurabh, my husband, about which names to shortlist and which ones to discard. Fortunately, every family member contributed with names they held dear. Luckily, 'Kabeer' resonated with everyone.
Let's dive into our comprehensive list of names that start with 'I' below, and let's help you find that perfect name for your little star.
