Celadon

Traditionally a boy's name, the meaning of Celadon is a little bit unclear. However, the name can be traced back to Céladon, a colorful character known for wearing distinct green robes in the 1607 French novel 'l'Astrée'. The novel was written by Honoré d'Urfé and is widely believed to be the most influential piece of French literature from the 17th century. Although most people are familiar with the name 'l'Astrée', Honoré d'Urfé actually found his inspiration for Céladon from a character called Celadon in a much earlier piece of Latin literature titled 'Metamorphoses', written by the famous Roman poet Ovid. Not only is the name derived from French and Latin literature, but Celadon, a soft greenish-gray color, is another meaning of Celadon, making it one of the rare baby names that are also a color. Fans of the popular Pokémon franchise might recognize the name too, as Celadon City is the largest city in Kanto and the eighth-largest city in the entire Pokémon realm.
