Corona was actually a name before the pandemic. Corona means "crown" in Latin, as well as Italian and Spanish. This was the name of a 2nd-century saint who was martyred with her companion Victor.

There are tons of names that mean “clean” “pure” or “safe” and as long as they aren’t racist they would be better than Sanitizer.

To me, it's insensitive to the extreme to name your children (or pet) directly after Covid-19. Their name will be triggering to so many who have lost loved ones in the pandemic, or just those who have lived thru this trying time. I would immediately draw negative conclusions about the parents if they told me their child was named Covid or Corona; and as the child grows up, they will forever get a complicated reaction whenever they introduce themselves, so I think it's very unfair to the child as well.

This was SUCH a fun video! Loved all these ideas (apart from the hideous first ones - I mean, why would you?!). Posey is an absolute favourite of mine but I don't think we could ever get away with a 'P' name with our surname. Gives unfortunate initials!

I love the name Locket. Freesia is an interesting one. Maybe a list of unusual flower names. Around the time of the 1st world war, people were naming their babies after the battles and then victories. Passchendaele was one and then Armistice. Another list idea is one based on remembrance.

I would happily pick a name that had meanings of positivity and hope to symbolise that we hope to get through this, or which symbolise that my baby is one good thing in a really bad year. Beyond that I personally wouldnt want to saddle my child with a name that harps back to a bleak moment in our history.
