Few monikers are as fitting for a little adventurer as outdoorsy boy names. More rugged and spirited than your run-of-the-mill nature names for boys, these picks make our hearts sing with their zest for life. Let’s check out some together.
One of our favorite outdoorsy names for boys is Ranger. This word name wonder is not common in the United States, but he’s ready to be worn by the right little boy. Ranger has built-in energy and wanderlust, perfectly fitting a boy on the go. We picture a little Ranger adoring everything natural, from camping to fishing to stargazing with friends. If Ranger is a little too uncommon for you, check out Archer or Hunter. They’re still rugged outdoorsy names, but they’re more mainstream.
Some outdoorsy baby boy names come directly from animal sources, giving them a wild side you can’t help but love. We can see these names on babies that were super active in the womb, like Bear or Wolf. These little ones come into the world with a boom. Names like Falcon and Sparrow are ready to swoop into life and soar to great heights. See Hawk, Jay, and Colt for similar styling.
Cute outdoorsy boy names are another subcategory you may enjoy. These names are a touch softer than the action-packed ones above. Sage is a standout among them that works great with today’s top names. The healing herb behind the name has a gentle spirit. We can picture a little Sage to be quite the artist, sketching out his favorite forest scenes. Cove is another member of this group. Small yet mighty, he’s not a common name, but he fits in well with today’s popular picks, like Jace, Cade, and Cody. Other cute outdoorsy boy names are Brooks, Linden, and Rowan.
You could also look at meanings to find outdoorsy boy names. These are a touch more subtle in their natural associations. Silas means “man of the forest,” while Jorah means “first rain.” Nash means “by the ash tree,” and the vintage Bruce translates to “man from the brushwood.”
We hope you find the perfect pick for your little adventure buddy amongst our collection of outdoorsy boy names.
