Giving your child a name that means “sound” might be something that you come to regret or find a little bit too fitting when your baby is waking you up all night long with their cries and yells. But if one thing is for sure, it’s that children will make plenty of noise, so one thing this name will never be is ironic.
First of all, we have Aawaz, a Kurdish name for girls that means “tune” or “melody.” (close enough, right?) This one also gets spelled as Awaz sometimes.
Next up is Ravalli, a name from the Telugu people of India – incidentally, Telugu is an endangered language, so why not do your part to keep it alive by passing a name on to your offspring? It literally translates as “sound” and is mostly used for girls.
Shabd is a male name used in various cultures throughout India, including Bengali, Hindu, Marathi, and Tamil – although it’s reasonably rare. The name means both “word” and “sound,” depending on the origins and translation interpretation you opt for.
Finally, Zonar comes from Latin, and once again, it means sound (who would have guessed, right?).
