As I write this piece, it brings back beautiful memories for me when my husband Saurabh and I were researching names for our son, Kabeer. The entire journey of picking his name was like a roller coaster; we went crazy during the name search. We searched thousands of name options to find that perfect name, checking out many websites, apps, and YouTube videos. We just kept on writing and striking off names from our shortlist.

Although we had multiple girl names on our shortlist, just one boy name remained constant: 'Kabeer'. We couldn't think of any other names for boys beyond Kabeer. During this time, I had a lot of animated talks with Saurabh, my husband, about which names we should keep and which ones we should discard. Luckily, every family member participated in the naming journey, proposing names they liked from our shortlist. Their support and involvement reassured us that we were making the right choice. For a brief period, we did consider naming our son 'Neel', but eventually, the name 'Kabeer' came out as the winner.

Now, let's check out our detailed list of names that start with 'Y' below, and let's help you pick out the perfect name for your little shining star.
