Belle and the Beast's Children

Back in August I started this blog series and then researched for this post and just stopped. I forgot about this series, that is, until I was brainstorming post ideas for the new year and flipping through my name notebook. For these posts I like to watch the movies before finalizing my list of name inspirations. It gives me a better idea of the plot and little ideas I may have missed before.

For today's post I have Belle and Beast from Beauty and the Beast. My name inspiration comes from both Belle and the Beast. I took Belle's love for books and her father, Maurice, and combined it with the infamous rose and Beast's household object friends. My naming suggestions wouldn't be complete without looking at the moral of the story: seeing the inner beauty of someone. 

Libby- My God is an Oath; English 

Libby may not be an obvious choice for a book lover but bare with me here. I chose the name because Libby could be short for Library! 

Astoria- Feminine Form of Aster (Hawk); English

Like Libby, Astoria is in honor of sweet Belle's love of reading. The nickname Story will be super cute here. 

Maura- Feminine Form of Maurus (Dark Skinned); Italian and Spanish or Anglicized of Marie (Sea of Bitterness); Irish 

Belle meets the Beast because of her father, the only living relative that we know of. Her love for her father is so strong so its only fitting that I feature names to honor him. Maura is a nice fix in my eyes!

Lavender- Pale Purple Color, Aromatic Flower; English 

Lavender seems like a sweet Disney name. I filled the name from Mrs. Pott and Chip, the teapot and teacup from Beast's life. There are many flavors of tea out there and Lavender is one of them. 

Rosabel- Combination of Rosa (Rose) and Belle (Beautiful); English

A single rose plays a an important role in the Beast's life so I had to add Rose names to the list. I choice Rosabel to be my main rose name because of the combination of Rose and Belle. To see more Rose name suggestions look below!

Cara- Beloved; Italian 

The moral of the plot of the story is to look at people's inner beauty. I choose because it reminds me of caring. Plus the meaning is pretty nice too. 

Joy- Joy; English

Just like Cara, Joy is inspired by a person's inner beauty. 

Reed- Reed Clearing; English

Reed or Read is a nice honorary name for a book lover. 

Morris- Form of Maurice (Dark Skinned); English 

I pulled Morris from Belle's father Maurice. Morris would fit in Belle's little town. 

Grey- Gray; English 

Earl Grey tea is a tea familiar with many people. I can see Grey being a nice middle name to honor Mrs. Pott and Chip. 

Boston- Place Name; English 

Boston is on the list because the city is associated with tea. 

Royce- Variant of Rose; English 

To my surprise I was able to find a boy name associated with roses! I just had to add Royce to to list. 

Brave- Courageous, Strong, English 

When looking at someone's inner personality you look for the very best traits. I think being brave is something to be proud of. Brave or Bravery work here, especially as a middle name. 

Noble- Notable, Noble; English 

When you look up the definition of noble it says "possessing outstanding qualities" If that doesn't cover all qualities I don't know what does! Plus I think Noble is great for a little prince.

Past Installments of the Series:

Rapunzel and Flynn's Children 

Rapunzel and Flynn Rider's Children

Who loves Disney raise their hand?! I know my hand is raised that's for sure! So many bloggers feature Disney names on their blogs. There is even a name blog dedicated to just Disney names. I can't say I haven't shared my own Disney inspired names on the blog before (links at the end of these post). I'm always looking for ways to write about topics people like but with a twist. Hence, this blog series was born.

For a few years now I have had this idea floating around in my head. Part of the inspiration came from multiple artist and their depictions of Disney couples as parents. Imagine, the famous Disney couples all grown up and starting their own families. What would they name their little ones? So here I am to bring some inspiration to these dotting parents.

First up is Rapunzel and Flynn Rider (or Eugene Fitzherbert), my favorite Disney princess. She is the lost princess and every year on her birthday they release lanterns for her. Her syllable (I believe you can call it that) is a golden sun. I tell you all of that because that is how I am pulling inspiration for the names.

Flora- Flower; Latin
There is a scene where Rapunzel is seen getting her hair braided and flowers placed in it. Throughout the movie you will find flowers. It seems as if the princess loves nature. No better name than a flower one.

Lux- Light; Latin
Like I mentioned above lanterns are a huge part of the movie. There is also a song called I See The Light.

Aisling- Dream, Vision; Irish
By far my favorite song from the movie is I've Got A Dream. At the beginning of the movie Rapunzel is wondering when she will be able to live her dreams and visions that she has.

Orli- Light for Me; Hebrew
Not only is the meaning of Orli have the word light in it but the full meaning is light for me. After everything the princess has been through I think its such  fitting meaning to a child.

Aurelia- Golden; Latin

The gold sun was a huge, huge role in the movie. I don't want to give any spoilers but if you watch the movie pay attention for the suns. 

Lucius- Light; Latin 

Prince Lucius sounds good right?! I can picture him in a disney movie. 

Arman- Dream; Kazah 

Arman kind of sounds like an old man name just like Eugene. Between the meaning and that I think it makes a nice name for a son of Rapunzel and Flynn. 

Paz- Gold; Hebrew 

Something about the sound of the name Paz sounds Disney like to me. I'm also digging the hidden gold meaning. 

Orion- Bounty, Limit; Greek 

Orion is a constellation in the sky. The lanterns in the movie can be mistaken for stars. Stars are also lights in the sky. 

Chrysanthos- Golden Flower; Greek 

Flowers and the color gold are important symbols throughout the movie so I had to put Chryanthos on the list!
