Musician Baby Names

Since musicians invented the concept of cool, where better to look for baby name inspiration than to their own names? Musician baby names are a subset of celebrity-inspired baby names — the baby names here are drawn from both the first names and last names of well-known rockstars, crooners, and pop queens. Rockstar surnames are especially trendy right now, with choices like Lennon and Lennox popular for both girls and boys.

Along with Lennon and Lennox, other musician baby names in the US Top 500 include Arlo, Cash, Everly, Hendrix, Marley, Presley, Rhett, and Sullivan. Baby names inspired by band names include Duran, Journey, Queen, and Zeppelin.

Browse our collection of musician baby names here. For names inspired by the music itself, take a look at our list of musical baby names, and be sure to check out Fameberry for more celebrity baby names.
