NameNest: Baby Names
Shortlist & partner match
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Swipe over a thousand baby names with their origins and meanings, match with your partner on one device, and land the shortlist together. Private, no account.
NameNest is a calm, private way to find a baby name together. Swipe through a starter library of more than a thousand names, keep the ones you love, and land a shortlist you and your partner both stand behind.
Every name comes with its origin and its conventional meaning, so a quick swipe still tells you something. Love it, file it under maybe, or pass, and the ones you love drop straight into your nest.
WHAT YOU GET
- A starter library of 1000+ names, each with its origin and a plain meaning
- Swipe shortlisting: love, maybe, or pass, one name at a time
- Your nest: every name you loved, with favourites, personal notes, and a filter by girl, boy, or neutral
- Origins insight: a simple chart of where your shortlist leans, drawn from your own picks
- Sibling-fit check: add the children you have already named and see how each shortlisted name sits beside them, reading syllable rhythm, shared initials, and rhyme
- Final-three compare: line up your top three side by side on origin, meaning, syllables, and sibling fit
- Partner match mode: you and your partner each swipe the same deck on one device, then NameNest reveals the names you both loved. No accounts, no second device
- Keepsake export: a clean PDF of your nest with your final three, favourites, and the full shortlist, plus a CSV of every name
- Syncs across iPhone, iPad, and Mac through your own private iCloud, with no separate account to make
FREE AND LIFETIME
Free includes 50 swipes, your nest with favourites and notes, the origins insight, the sibling-fit check, and the final-three compare. The Lifetime unlock is a single one-time purchase, no subscription: it opens unlimited swipes through the full library, partner match mode, and the keepsake PDF and CSV export.
A FRIENDLY STARTING POINT
The meanings and origins are the conventional, widely published senses of each name. Treat them as a starting point for your own reading, not the final word.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your nest syncs privately across your devices through your own iCloud account. There is no separate account, no analytics, and no tracking. You can erase everything from every device at once with Delete All My Data in Settings.
