I wasn't aware there are Easter related names for children. The only one I can think of that could possibly be suitable is Emmanuel/Immanuel, another name for Jesus since that is what Easter is about.

I don't know that there are actually Easter names, I couldn't come up with any myself which is why I asked here. I mean, Christmas has Holly, Noel, Joy, etc. so I figured there must be at least a few for Easter.

Peter? Peter Cottontail? Honestly... there are other Easter names? If you want to stretch it more I could probably come up with a few.

Eggbert?

You got me...

LOL. Eggbert. Yeah, I'm thinking there aren't really any "Easter names." Not good ones anyway.

For some reason I thought of Rowan. Other than that I'm stumped lol

Pascal, Pasquale both literally mean "Easter", but I think you'll have more luck if you search for things related to Easter, rather than literally meaning "Easter". Sort of how Noel and Noelle literally mean Christmas, but Holly is just Christmas-related.

Some "Spring" names:
Aviv - "Spring, renewal" Hebrew
Haru - "born in the spring" Japanese
Rabia - "Spring" Arabic
Vasant - "Spring season" Sanskrit

"Resurrection":
Anstice - Greek
Stacy - English
Tassos - Greek

"Lamb":
Carnig - Armenian
Cordero - Spanish ("little lamb")
Hamal - Arabic

"Birth":
Benevuto - Italian (Welcomed birth)
Genesis - Greek
Milad - Persian

I didn't find anything for "Rabbit" or "Egg"...

True... but she asked about Boy names... There are a lot more Girl names out there.

Yeah, I realized that and tried to delete. I also made another comment =]

I think any name that means _____ of God could qualify. There are a lot of those... Michael means who is like God, Joshua means God is my salvation, Matthew means gift of God, Daniel, God is my judge, Jonathan, Joseph...
