Sci-Fi Baby Names

Sci-fi baby names come from the most popular science fiction movies, books and television shows. Science fiction writers love to choose obscure, rare names for their characters, sometimes going so far as to invent names themselves, such as Kylo and Katniss.

Along with Kylo, other sci-fi baby names in the US Top 1000 include Dash, Fox, Holden, Kira, Leia, Max, Serenity, and Trinity. Names that owe their success directly to a science fiction franchise include Ripley, Neo, and Mazikeen, a newly rising name from Neil Gaiman’s comic book Sandman.

If you are searching for a distinctive and cool name for your child, you should consider taking inspiration from sci-fi character names. From Star Wars to Blade Runner, here's a list of unique science fiction baby names.
