Baby Names Meaning Sun

Sun-names carry warmth and presence. They run from the literal (Sunny, Sol) to the mythological (Helios, Surya) to the lyrical (Arav, Kyrie). This hub gathers names across cultures whose root meaning is sun or sunlight.

Sol, Helios (Greek), Surya (Sanskrit), Arun (Sanskrit, 'dawn sun'), Ra (Egyptian), Amaterasu (Japanese sun goddess), and Samson (Hebrew, 'of the sun') all belong here. Modern favourites like Sunny and Soleil keep the theme in live use.
