When it comes to picking a name for your baby, the options are indeed endless. Baby names meaning ‘quiet’ can exude a serene and peaceful vibe. Parents may choose such names to imbibe qualities like calmness in the face of chaos, reflection, and tranquility. Hundreds of baby names exist, but you cannot choose just any ordinary name for your bundle of joy. Your selected name should be unique and have a positive and uplifting meaning. Quiet people are more capable of expressing themselves as compared to talkative ones. By not being overly nosy and throwing their opinion around, they know what they are talking about. They also convey a desire for the child to be able to discover inner peace and inspire others to do the same. For instance, the Japanese name Shizuka means ‘quiet summer’ or ‘quiet fragrance,’ which connotes a calm, serene atmosphere.

She was also the mistress of the renowned military leader Minamoto no Yoshitsune (1).

Whichever name parents decide on, it is undoubtedly a priceless gift to the child, a constant reminder to find inner peace and enjoy the quietness in a constantly changing world.
