They can be chosen by yourself or by someone else (or even by a deity!). Magical names are commonly chosen when one is initiated into the craft, when one joins a coven, or after studying witchcraft for a year and a day. (At the end of the post, I’ll list some of the best witch names for boys and best with names for girls!) Choose witch names from famous witches in history What Are Magical Or Witch Names? If you are looking for witchy names from specific cultures, I have lists of Irish witch names and Japanese witch names that you should check out, too!

Still stumped? Here are all the wacky celeb baby names we wish we’d thought of first.Knowing the true name of something or someone gives you magical power over them.įor that reason, I see magical names as something important to protect ourselves from other witches and the entities that we work with. Brynden (head of House Tully and the Lord of Riverrun).Bronn (a swordsman loyal to House Lannister).The fourth child of Eddard and Catelyn Stark) Benjen (younger brother of Eddard Stark and a member of the Night’s Watch).Brienne (member of Renly Baratheon’s Kingsguard).Who knew?! Clearly, ‘B’ is a favorite letter for the Game of Thrones gang o’ names. Bond (meaning “tied to the land,” from Middle and Old English).Bergen (from Old German and Scandinavian, meaning “lives on the mountain”).Beckett (because aren’t we all living Waiting for Godot right now?).Bailey (one of the few names that sounds great for a boy, girl, OR dog).Bronx (my personal favorite borough, and Ashlee Simpson’s too apparently).Bryce (named after the canyon, this will be one deep kid).Blaze (you can’t say no to a kid named Blaze).Bobbie (bonus if you have girl twins named Billie and Bobbie).Bertie (derived from French meaning “intelligent, glorious raven” - I mean!!).Blaine (David Blaine the magician? No?).Billie (Lady Day is one iconic namesake).Bo (between Diddley and Burnham, we know who we’d pick).

Brantley (becoming more popular according to the Social Security Administration).Bentley (if you want to be all bougie about it).Benedict (thankfully, we have Cumberbatch instead of Arnold to be #1 namesake).Beck (guaranteed to NOT be a “Loser,” baby).Bastian (for Neverending Story diehards everywhere).Bear (cuddlier than Buck, but still wild).Beau (or Bo, sweet and simple and oh-so Southern).Bowie (talk about a rock star baby name).Brody ( Irish name meaning “from the muddy place,” and if that ain’t 2020 I dunno what is).Brooks (creeks, streams, rivers, all soothing!).Barric (an English name meaning “grain farm”).Bernard ( “strong as a bear” - the less-common variation Bjorn also means this)ĭesign: Ashley Britton/SheKnows.Brian (masculine of Brianna, meaning “he ascends”).Barry (there’s truly a part of us that wants to see a resurgence of tiny Barrys in 2020).Barney (Stinson! The Purple Dinosaur! Either way, he’s got a sure sense of humor).Billy (this one is pretty unisex but the “y” version is usually a dude).Barnaby ( fans of Charles Dickens may enjoy this one).Bradley (Cooper, Whitford, either way he’ll probably be a Democrat).Bob/Bobby ( Bobby come on over for dinner - when quarantine is over).Benjamin (Hebrew name meaning, believe it or not, “son of the right hand”).Blythe (Anglo-Saxon name meaning “happy,” daww).Bluebell ( nature names are all the rage).Birdie ( Busy Philipps snagged this cutie for her daughter).Baileigh/Bailee (the sound of a human born in 2020 for sure).Brianna (a Celtic name meaning “strong” or “she ascends”).Bernice/Berenice (She’s a badass who bobbed her hair.Beverley (Hills, Cleary, all kinds of human and geographical favorites!).Bianca (some Taming of the Shrew or maybe 10 Things I Hate About You inspo?).Bethany (a Biblical baby name from the Hebrew).Brooke (Shields leaves some glam shoes to fill).Brigit/Brigid/Brigitte (an Irish baby name meaning “the high one” or “strength”).Bitsy (of Hebrew origin, meaning “pledged to God”).Beth (the wisest sister in Little Women, a true Oscar-winning baby name).Betty (Boop or Draper, bombshells galore).Beatrice/Beatrix (from Gaelic, meaning “bringer of joy”).Here are our picks guaranteed to bewitch - and blossom as baby grows. Whatever brought you a-Googling “ baby names beginning with B,” rest assured you’ve landed in the right place. Maybe you want some alliterative twin names (Ben and Branson?) or first-middle pair (Bryce Briar?) or maybe you’re just plain bonkers over your hometown of Brooklyn, Boise or Brisbane and want to name your kid thusly.
