Traveling is a passion for many people. But the traveling doesn't have to end when there's a baby on the way. There are tons of parents who travel with their kids. Whether it's a road trip, vacation at Disney World or two week tour of Europe, seeing the world with a family is totally doable, if that's the family's priority. One mom from the UK used her maternity leave to explore the world with her infant and it honestly looked incredible. If this sounds familiar, or enticing, then travel is a obviously big deal and should be honored in some way. How? Naming the baby a travel-related name. Travelers know there are places around the world that hold a special place in their hearts. And luckily for a baby-naming scenario, they're beautiful.
Now, there are tons of baby names out there to choose from. There's trendy names, gender neutral names, and so many other genres of names. But to name a child after a truly special place will not only mean something to mom and dad, but to baby later on. Maybe the parents met in Geneva, or the mom-to-be found herself in Verona. Perhaps a dad-to-be's family is from Egypt. That child will carry that story with them. And if there is no story, that's fine, too. Their name will be cool and amazing. Plus, with travel on the rise, a related name will surely hit everyone in the feels. Then, whenever new mom and baby are ready, it can be time soon enough to travel once again. And they'll be able to have new travel tales of their own. No matter what, like the places they'll be never after, it'll never go out of style.

The Nile River is one of the most beautiful and famous rivers in the world. If Egypt is a favorite place, this name will pay great homage.
