Urban Prairie Names

Urban Prairie is one of the hottest styles on the fashion runways, and one that translates perfectly to baby names. Fusty vintage names and conservative nature names collide in Urban Prairie, exemplified by such names as Alma and Amos, Fern and Field, even Prairie itself.

Along with Alma and Amos, other Urban Prairie names in the US Top 1000 include Clyde, Elsie, Harold, June, Mabel, Otis, Solomon, and Wren. Among the most avant garde names in the Urban Prairie style are Bly, Calico, Petal, and Weaver.

These names are a little bit city and a little bit country, sophisticated yet artless, traditional yet edgy, so far out they're very very in. Take a look at our roster of Urban Prairie baby names.
