Writing-Related Names

Literary names, culled from great novels and the authors who penned them, have become a very stylish group in recent years. But writing-related names are ab offshoot that's gotten less attention. With credit to @Vana, a Berry who created an original list of similar names, these names all relate to writing itself.

Writing-related names in the US Top 1000 include Devin, Kyrie, Legend, Lyric, and Teagan. Names connected to poetry and writing have been fashionable among celebrities in recent years. Among the choices used for starbabies are Canon, Epic, Hero, Ode, Poet, and Story.

Writing-related baby names can connect to poetry, plot structure, and literary devices. If you're a writer or simply a book lover, one of those original word names connected to writing may be, well, right for you.
