Forest

Forest traces its roots to the Old French word 'forest,' meaning woods or wilderness. This term described the large tracts of land set aside for royal hunting, imbued with a sense of untamed nature. As surnames and then given names, it traveled from France into England after the Norman Conquest, evoking the vast, wild landscapes that once dominated the land.

To whisper 'Forest' to your son is to give him the scent of pine needles and damp earth. It’s the feeling of dappled sunlight on your skin as you imagine his future adventures. This name resonates with a deep, quiet power, the kind you sense in a child who finds solace and wonder in the natural world, a steady presence for you.
