Space related names? Thoughts on Jupiter?

Love this!! Jules or Ju work as nicknames for Jupiter.

My friends have named their second baby Apollo (their first born is named Atlas!). I really like it.

There’s also Buzz, Mars and Star.

I like Jupiter! Jupe is a cute nickname. I also like Apollo, Mars, and Star as mentioned above, or you could go more Zodiac themed with a name like Aries? I like Moon as a middle name too

Cool, thanks Carly and Eve! Also are you thinking of Jupiter as a girls name? I see it as that (as it reminds me a lot of Juniper). But when I looked up the mythology Jupiter was a Greek god so I was a little unsure

I imagine it as more of a girls name but I can definitely see it for both!

Jupiter is cute! nicknames could be Juju, Jupi, Jett, Jay! i think Jupiter a fairly gender neutral name, but i would associate it slightly more as a girl's name, because it sounds similar to Juniper and Juliet - plus Ed Sheeran named his daughter Jupiter! 💕

I honestly see it totally equal for both sexes :)

My daughter is named Juniper and I’ve had multiple people think her name is Jupiter. So apparently her being a girl doesn’t stop the Jupiter association at all.

As a side note, Jupiter has a lot of moons and some of them make gorgeous names! Europa, Io, Callisto, Amalthea, Adrastea, Elara, Lysithea, Eupheme, Cyllene are some of my favourites. And that’s just Jupiter. There are some other moons of other planets that have great gems for names too!

Jupiter could be really cool I think! Some people may think it’s a little out there depending on where you leave but Jupiter has so many ties things outside of astrology too so I think many people could appreciate it! And as Mo said it’s VERY close to Juniper which is a popular name!

These are some of my favorites :)

Altair- Means "the flyer" in Arabic. This is the name of a star in the constellation Aquila.
Arista- Means "ear of grain" in Latin. This is the name of a star, also known as Spica, in the constellation Virgo.
Bellatrix- Means "female warrior" in Latin. This is the name of the star that marks the left shoulder of the constellation Orion. Or HP which may make it unusable
Lyra- The name of the constellation in the northern sky containing the star Vega. It is said to be shaped after the lyre of Orpheus.

Vega- The name of a star in the constellation Lyra. Its name is from Arabic الواقع (al-Waqi') meaning "the swooping (eagle)"
Pandora- one of Saturns moons
Juno- the third main belt of asteroids discovered
Ceres- A celestial body orbiting between Mars and Jupiter, the largest asteroid and innermost dwarf planet; officially called 1 Ceres.
Cressida- a moon of Uranus
Cosmo- I also think is really cute
Sorry had too many good names! Happy hunting!🖤

Juju 💗

Was near a play ground and heard a mom call her little girl Galaxy! And I thought it sounded so cute!
Could do Gal, Lexi, or Aly as a nickname.

Jupiter is super cool! Nicknames could be Juno, Juju, Junie or even something kinda fun and obscure like Ringo (from Jupiter’s rings). Here’s some other space-themed name ideas:

Mars
Rocket
Cosmos
Gravity
Luna
Venus
Calypso
Celeste
Astro
Galaxy
Stellar
Orion
Zenith
Mercury
Nova
Aries
Halo
Solaris
Apollo
Oberon

Not a fan of it. Other name variations: Juniper, Julia/Etta, Jules for boy, Judith or Jude

Thanks for all your honest feedback! 😇 There are so many great options, I’m going to propose some to my SO and see what he thinks
