Willow

A name that traces its origin back to England, the name Willow comes from the Old English word ‘welig’. The meaning of the name Willow is pretty simple - it is taken from the willow tree. In art and literature the willow tree is associated with grace, slenderness and elegance, hence the adjective ‘willowy’. The Romani believed that the willow tree possessed the ability and power to heal any sick person. The tree is also used as a symbol of freedom. They are known for their unique look, with branches that are slender and long. They get their name from the way that water runs off of their branches, as the rain can make it look as if the tree is weeping tears. The tree is also known for withstanding harsh environments, and so the name can symbolize flexibility and determination. In recent years the name Willow has increased in popularity and was the 46th most common girls name in 2019, in the United States.
