Meaning & Story

Named after the spring Christian holiday, itself from the Old English 'Eostre' — a goddess of dawn and spring whose name likely derives from the Proto-Germanic word for 'east' and the rising sun.

Easter is a name brimming with renewal and light — it carries the specific joy of a morning that announces something new and beautiful is beginning. For a female pet, it has a lovely seasonal sweetness that feels particularly perfect for a spring-born animal with a bright, hopeful personality. There's something gently spiritual about Easter without being heavy-handed; it's simply a name that believes in beginnings. Easter always brings good things.
