In the South, we love reaching far back into family history for names that are steeped in tradition. That's why Wyatt has reappeared on the family tree for generations. That doesn't mean you can't consider other options, especially when it comes to classic names that stand the test of time. Southern city names, historic figures, and literary heroes can all provide inspiration when naming your Southern baby. Or maybe you just like the way "Mary Grace" sounds (Southerners are all about a good double name). Keep your options open while looking over our list of Southern baby names—we're confident you'll find a few good contenders.
