Baby names meaning grace have always been in vogue, regardless of the language. Grazie in German, Grazia in Italian, Gracia in Spanish, and Grâce in French; grace has several variations and meanings.

Grace is like a particular favor from a higher power that humans do not have to earn. It's a gift given with no expectation of receiving anything in return. The word grace is derived from the Greek word charis, which signifies 'God's favor’ (1). The plural form of this is Charites, which represents the Three Graces of Ancient Greek mythology. In Hesiod’s Theogony, they are Aglaea, who personifies radiance; Euphrosyne, who brings Joy; and Thalia, who symbolizes flowering. The Graces are masters of dancing, singing, and poetry; together, they represent charm, beauty, and grace (2).

Christians are often known to say grace before their meals; they also speak of being saved by God’s grace. Nature offers symbols of grace in flowers, animals, and colors. The color of lavender reflects grace, while the lotus represents beauty and goodness. Swans, doves, and peacocks represent grace through their elegance and pride.
