About Artemis

Bold parents choose bold names, and this is among the boldest. Drawing from Greek mythology, it carries associations with independence, wilderness, and fierce protection. This is a name for a daughter you hope will be strong, self-reliant, and unafraid to challenge conventions. The goddess Artemis never bowed to anyone, and there's power in bestowing that legacy. Yes, it's longer and more complex than trending choices, but that complexity reflects depth and substance. It's a name that demands to be taken seriously, that announces someone remarkable before they even enter the room. The nickname possibilities offer softer alternatives for everyday use while keeping the powerful full name in reserve. It's intellectual and cultured, suggesting parents who value education and mythology, who appreciate the weight of history and story. In a world of Emmas and Olivias, your daughter will be the only Artemis in her class, her office, her life.
