10 Beautiful Baby Names With 6 Syllables That You Can't Help But Sing
byEmily Westbrooks
I'll admit I do like the concept of searching for a baby name by the number of syllables. If you or your partner have a very long first name, perhaps you'd like to continue the tradition. Alternatively, if you happen to have a very short surname of only one syllable, you might want to balance it out with a longer first name. If either of those scenarios describes your baby-naming situation, here are some baby names with six syllables to get the ball rolling.
From Alexanderina to Maximiliano, baby names with six syllables are, to be honest, a little tricky to find. Most of them are of Greek, Spanish, or Hawaiian origin, which make them sound quite musical, and work perfectly if you or your partner happen to be of any of those origins. Many long names also happen to lend themselves to cute nicknames for casual settings — Alek for Alekanekelo, for example — and still give you a lot to work with in more formal settings.
There are two certainties with most of these six-syllable first names. Your kindergartener's class is going to struggle to pronounce it, but once they figure it out, your kid will be impossible to forget.
