50 Olympic-inspired baby names for your little superstar

Give your future champion a name that embodies the thrill of victory.

Are you hoping to raise the next generation of Olympian? Whether you're a seasoned athlete or simply admire the spirit of sportsmanship, determination and glory, Olympic baby names offer a unique way for parents to celebrate their newborn's potential.

Imagine naming your little one after an iconic Olympian like Jesse Owens, whose legendary performance at the 1936 Berlin Olympics defied prejudice and inspired millions. Or perhaps you prefer a name like Simone, paying tribute to the extraordinary Simone Biles, whose unparalleled skills in gymnastics continue to redefine what's possible.

For a name as powerful as a gold medal, consider Athena, embodying wisdom and strategy like the goddess of ancient Greek mythology, and paying homage to the site of the first Olympic games in 1896. Alternatively, Apollo captures the essence of speed and victory, echoing the spirit of the games themselves.

Whether you're drawn to names rooted in Greek mythology, names of Olympic heroes, or names that evoke the strength and grace of past champions, there are plenty of options to explore. Dive into our list of 50 Olympic baby names and discover the perfect name for your future champion.
