These names work particularly well for first children, rainbow babies, or simply for parents who want the theme woven in.
Names meaning first or beginning
Alpha and Prima carry the meaning directly. Primrose is the first rose of the year. Neo means new in Greek. Novah and Nova mean new in Latin, both now firmly established as modern names. Yuzuki in Japanese can carry new-moon meanings.
