Gentle Baby Names names show up across every naming tradition, because the theme is one of the deepest in human language.
Where to start
A good shortlist runs across origins rather than drilling into one. You will notice the sound and texture of the theme varies a lot by language: Hebrew and Greek tend to carry the meaning directly, while Celtic languages often carry it poetically.
Pairing with other names
Meaning-themed first names pair beautifully with softer, less loaded middle names. The theme does most of the emotional work, and the middle name can sit more lightly.
