A baby’s name is something that follows the child throughout life, and with that comes the awesome responsibility of parents to choose wisely. The reasoning is different for every parent — some choose traditional names, others choose by uniqueness and for many, a significant meaning is the true reason behind the moniker.
Hippie baby names are not just for the crunchy granola parents. A hippie is someone who rejects established institutions, values, and customs. A hippie child is broadminded, loving, and seeks peace and change for the betterment of all. The hippie baby will be about enlightenment, tolerance, and being a good human being.
