Thinking about the name

Alder

English origin

A nature name derived from the alder tree, a water-loving deciduous species with historical significance in European folklore and craftsmanship. The name carries organic appeal and subtle strength—alder wood was prized for its durability and water resistance. It works beautifully as a gender-neutral choice for parents embracing nature-based naming.
