The deep affection parents have for their children is vast and unending. Baby names that mean ‘loved’ capture that feeling into words. They are the perfect way to show the parent’s love for their children. Parents may choose these names to show their children how much they love them. Love is a universal emotion. Hence, these names are found in all languages and cultures. Many of these names have a timeless feel, which shows that love is endless.

Aziz is one of the most well-known names with this meaning in the Arabic language. It also has other meanings, such as ‘powerful’ and ‘respected.’ Aziz is also one of the 99 names of Allah and, hence, is considered religiously significant in Islam. In English, one of the most popular names would be David. Derived from Hebrew, this name is mentioned in the Old Testament and belongs to a powerful king. It is now used in many languages besides English, such as French, Scottish, Welsh, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Swedish, Norwegian, and Dutch, among others. Yet another popular name from the Bible is Mary. It is believed to have Egyptian roots and means ‘beloved’ or ‘loved.’ In Hinduism, names like Priya and Ramakanta are found in ancient texts. Priya is the name of one of the daughters of Daksha, while Ramakanta is the name of the Hindu god Vishnu. The Swedish name Ingrid is also quite popular. It has Old Norse origins and was popularized because of its association with the Swedish actor Ingrid Bergman. Some names from mythologies also fall into this category. Frigg from Norse mythology, Angharad from Welsh mythology, and Meret from Egyptian mythology are some of the best examples. Angharad came into the spotlight a few years ago when it appeared in the movie Mad Max: Fury Road.

Parents choose these names to show how much they love their children. They are also a way to convey the unconditional love a parent has for their child. These names have a timeless quality that makes them suitable for all generations.
