Baby Names Meaning Peace
NameRoot's collection of 428 names that mean peace draws from every major naming tradition we cover — names that share peace, serenity, and inner stillness as their central thread, even when the languages and cultural roots differ widely.
These names share a meaning cluster, not a literal translation: in NameRoot's corpus, each name is tagged with the underlying virtue or concept its meaning belongs to. So a Sanskrit name and a Hebrew name can both belong to the Peace cluster if their core sense is the same.
