Star Trek baby names from the 7 different TV series

To boldly name… who no one has named before?

Call us dorks, sci-fi geeks, Trekkies or whatever you want — we are Star Trek fans, and proud of it.

Proud enough, in fact, to put together this list of more than 70 different Star Trek baby names, inspired by the five different series: the original, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager and Enterprise .

We also can’t forget to honor the creator of the Star Trek universe: you could always name your kid after Eugene “ Gene” Wesley Roddenberry.

Want something completely alien? Got that. Something traditional from Earth? Have some of those, too. We also have a few that are interesting but don’t scream, “My mom took me to Comic Con when I was a month old.”

Star Trek baby names: Engage!

Below, you can check out names we hand-culled from from TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY and ENT — mostly based on characters, but you’ll see a few other things (such as actors’ names and some alien species) in the mix.

Baby names inspired by Star Trek (the original series)

So, you’re enough of a geek that you love Star Trek so much that you’d consider naming your child after someone or something from the show. Awesome.

I’ll spare you casually listing off the first name of every character with a “normal” name, because it’s not like no one has thought of naming their kid James before — but James Tiberius (or just Tiberius, for that matter) is far more interesting, and will absolutely get your point across.

Baby James Tiberius Kirk, in fact, is pictured below — as seen in JJ Abrams’ 2009 Star Trek movie , with his mother Winona Kirk.

Star Trek baby names from the 7 different TV series

Infinite diversity in infinite names

For the more adventurous, you could consider the gamut of Vulcan names such as Spock, Sarek, T’Pau (where do you think the “ Heart and Soul” band got the name, hmm?), or T’Pol.

I suppose if you’re a fan of the Klingons, you could go that route as well — but personally, I don’t think I’d name my son or daughter anything that sounds like my cat being sick on the living room floor.

Interplanetary Star Trek baby names

There is nothing restricting you to using just character names. You can go with Vulcan (also, of course, the Roman god of the forge), or perhaps Andor or Andoria, if you’re a fan of the blue guys with the funny antennae.

Truly, one can run wild with a Star Trek-themed name, as there are over 35 years’ worth of work to choose one from.

As such, this can only be an extremely partial list, intended to get your creative naming juices flowing. In no time you’ll have that perfectly geeky name for your little one.

If you’re slightly more daring, why not try using a last name instead? Picard or Riker would certainly make for good, interesting boy names.

There’s a limit to what works here, however. For example, you may wish to avoid naming your son Crusher , unless you plan on him becoming a professional wrestler.

And unless you want to give your child a life of computer record hassles — meaning everything from his driver’s license to his direct-deposit — there’s one more name we definitely can’t recommend: Data.

Star Trek Names

cute star trek baby names

But what if you want to go deeper into space, or perhaps “go boldly where no man has gone before?” Step aboard the Starship Enterprise to choose a meaningful and pop-culturally relevant Star Trek-inspired baby name for the Next Generation.

Lest you fear we’re only going to suggest the obvious cast from season one like Spock (a twofer homage to Star Trek, The Original Series and the famed baby doctor) or Kirk (though we do like the name McCoy, after Dr. “Bones” McCoy in TOS, for boys and girls) – worry not. These Star Trek-inspired baby names are cultivated from the cast rosters of all its incarnations, from the original series that debuted in 1966 to the most recent version now available online, Picard.

Each of these names works on its own without even knowing any Star Trek references, but it’s a little sweeter for a nerd if you do. So, when someone admires your child, saying “Oh, Jet? Like the Lt. Commander on Star Trek: Discovery played by Tig Notaro?” – you’ll know by association that you’ve found your tribe.

Here are some of the most “down-to-earth” Star Trek-inspired baby names (or pet names):

cute star trek baby names

Ayala  — A provisional lieutenant aboard Voyager (seasons 1 – 7) and the surname of a California senator and his namesake school, it’s a fluid name that rolls easily.

Bryce  – Surname of the Discovery communications officer (season 1-3) and junior lieutenant. Also a given first name and name of several spots in the American west.

Dax  –  A xenomorphic character in the fictional Star Trek universe, the Dax life form is a Trill that lives inside humanoid hosts like Jadzia and Ezri in Deep Space Nine .

Grace  – Actor Grace Lee Whitney was known for her TOS role as Janet Rand and returned for subsequent Star Trek films. From the Latin, Gratia.

Ishka  – From Deep Space Nine season 3 and 5-7, Ishka is a philanthropic female Ferengi who is the mother of bar-owner Quark and his little brother Rom.

Kimara  – Portrayed by Adrienne Barbeau (Rizzo in Grease ) Kimara Cretak is the name of a Romulan representative on season 7 of Deep Space 9 .

Kira  – The surname comes first for Deep Space Nine character Kira Nerys and her kin, as is Bajoran custom. Possibly derived from Hindi/Sanskrit Kiran, ‘giver of light.’

cute star trek baby names

Kirk  – A Scottish and Northern English word meaning “church,” or more specifically the Church of Scotland. Surname of the original Enterprise captain, James T. Kirk.

Maxwell  – A vice admiral on Starfleet Command, the human character Maxwell Forrest appeared on Star Trek: Enterprise (seasons 1-4).

Leeta  – A Dabo girl for the betting game and Deep Space Nine resident who later married Rom, this Bajoran name sounds the same as that of female wrestler, Lita.

Leland  – Or “Lee.” Star Trek: Discovery (season 2) — a commanding officer in Section 31. Originally the name is Old English for “lives by unseeded land.”

Linus  – A science officer on Discovery and the son of Apollo in Greek mythology, it’s a respectable name that would do well to emerge from the shadow of Peanuts .

Mila  – A Cardassian housekeeper in seasons 3 and 7 of Deep Space 9 , Mila is also a female Slavic name from Eastern Europe meaning “gracious” or “dear.”

Miri  – Diminutive of the name Miriam, recorded in Biblical Hebrew, and the name of the eighth episode in TOS and its teenage title character played by Kim Darby.

Nilsson  – The name of a female officer in seasons 2 and 3 of Discovery , we also like the name for boys as an homage to American songwriting great Harry Nilsson.

O’Brien  – Miles and Molly O’Brien are a human couple on Deep Space Nine and aboard the Enterprise. He is the only major character who is Irish, from Ireland.

Owen  – Owen Paris is a cast member on the Pathfinder Project in Star Trek: Voyager . It’s Welsh, dating back to the reign of Henry VIII, meaning “noble-born.”

Jet  – Jet Reno is Lt. Commander on Discovery , played by stand-up comic and actor Tig Notaro. Can be masculine or feminine, it’s common in Dutch-speaking countries.

cute star trek baby names

Cristobal  – Cristobal ‘Chris’ Rios is a character on Star Trek: Picard who, at first, is reluctant to help the hero of this new series debuting this month on CBS All Access.

Sela  – A mixed-race Romulan commander in the Romulan Empire, Sela appears in seasons 4 and 5 of Star Trek: The Next Generation .

Seska  – A Cardassian who appears in Star Trek: Voyager , Seska was genetically altered to appear Bajoran in order to steal Maquis secrets. Pretty name, though.

Sisko  – The mostly-human extended family group built around Benjamin Sisko in Deep Space Nine . Also spelled “Sisco” as a distinguished Spanish surname.

Tiberius  – It’s what the “T” in James T. Kirk stands for. A Latin name used throughout Roman history. Feminine form is Tiberia, for both, shorten to Ti.

Tora  – Artist Tora Ziyal is a Bajoran/Carsassian resident of Deep Space Nine . The word means “tiger” in Japanese.

Una  – Also known as Number One on Star Trek: Discovery , Una was a first officer on the USS Enterprise . Of Latin origin, popular in Ireland, means “one” or “lamb.”

Winn  – A Bajoran religious leader on Deep Space Nine, it’s not just half the name of a grocery store chain (Winn Dixie). Nice, preppie sound to it and goes with anything.

When you’re trying on these tried-and-true handles, consider the trajectory of Star Trek: what began as a small weekly television show in 1966 has evolved into one of the greatest entertainment franchises of all time, weaving its way into the fabric of our existence with socially progressive and scientifically brilliant projections of life in the faraway future. That’s an inspirational legacy for anyone.

So, if you’ve been beamed up by these Star Trek-related names for your little Enterprise, but find yourself on the final frontier without a clear choice on the horizon – consider the name of the man who created it all: Eugene Wesley Rodenberry, who went simply by “Gene.” Here’s the full list of Star Trek characters to date on Wikipedia.

Kellie Flanagan is a writer and producer for print, broadcast and web, with credits in all media including short and long-form documentary. As a child actor Kellie played Candace on The Ghost and Mrs. Muir, The Andy Griffith Show, and the original Star Trek in the episode Miri.

Best Star Trek Baby Names

Introduction

Choosing a name for your baby is one of the most important decisions you'll make as a parent. It's a reflection of your hopes and dreams for your child, and a way to honor the people and things that matter most to you. If you're a fan of Star Trek, you might be looking for a name that reflects your love of sci-fi and popular culture. Luckily, the world of Star Trek is full of unique and meaningful names that are perfect for your little one.

Classic Characters

One of the best places to look for Star Trek baby names is among the classic characters from the original series and its spin-offs. Here are some of the most popular options: 1. James (or Jamie) - after Captain James T. Kirk, the iconic leader of the USS Enterprise. 2. Spock - after the half-human, half-Vulcan science officer who became a cultural icon. 3. Jean-Luc - after Captain Jean-Luc Picard, the distinguished leader of the USS Enterprise-D. 4. William (or Will) - after Commander William Riker, the charismatic first officer of the USS Enterprise-D. 5. Deanna - after Counselor Deanna Troi, the empathic and compassionate ship's counselor on the USS Enterprise-D.

Iconic Starships

Another great source of inspiration for Star Trek baby names is the iconic starships that have graced the franchise over the years. Here are some options to consider: 1. Enterprise - after the USS Enterprise, the most famous starship in the Star Trek universe. 2. Voyager - after the USS Voyager, the intrepid starship that journeyed through the Delta Quadrant. 3. Defiant - after the USS Defiant, the heavily-armed starship that was designed to fight the Borg. 4. Discovery - after the USS Discovery, the experimental starship that played a key role in the events of Star Trek: Discovery. 5. Excelsior - after the USS Excelsior, the starship that was famously commanded by Captain Hikaru Sulu in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.

Alien Species

If you're looking for a more unique name, why not consider one inspired by the various alien species in the Star Trek universe? Here are some options to consider: 1. T'Pol - after the Vulcan science officer on the USS Enterprise in Star Trek: Enterprise. 2. Worf - after the Klingon warrior who served on the USS Enterprise-D and later Deep Space Nine. 3. Kira - after Major Kira Nerys, the Bajoran officer on Deep Space Nine. 4. Neelix - after the Talaxian chef on the USS Voyager. 5. Seven - after Seven of Nine, the former Borg drone who joined the crew of the USS Voyager.

Meanings and Origins

Of course, it's not just the sound of a name that matters - it's also the meaning and origin behind it. Here are some of the meanings and origins of the Star Trek baby names we've discussed: 1. James - derived from the Hebrew name Jacob, meaning 'supplanter'. 2. Spock - a surname of English origin, meaning 'pointed hill'. 3. Jean-Luc - a combination of the French names Jean and Luc, meaning 'God is gracious' and 'light' respectively. 4. William - derived from the Germanic name Wilhelm, meaning 'resolute protector'. 5. Deanna - a variant of the name Diana, meaning 'divine' or 'heavenly'. 6. Enterprise - a word of French origin, meaning 'initiative' or 'enterprise'. 7. Voyager - derived from the French word 'voyage', meaning 'journey'. 8. Defiant - meaning 'bold' or 'daring'. 9. Discovery - meaning 'the act of discovering' or 'uncovering'. 10. Excelsior - a Latin word meaning 'ever upward' or 'higher'.

In conclusion, if you're a fan of Star Trek and looking for a unique and meaningful name for your baby, there are plenty of options to choose from. Whether you're inspired by classic characters, iconic starships, or alien species, there's a name out there that's perfect for your little one. And with their rich meanings and origins, these names are sure to be a source of pride and inspiration for years to come.

Sci-Fi Baby Names

cute star trek baby names

The sci-fi genre is one that, when you find yourself immersed in it, you can’t escape. It’s easy to love and easier still to integrate it into every fiber of your personality after finding your favorite shows, books, and art. Through witnessing characters’ clever minds and their typically slow-warming hearts through various adventures, you’re able to live vicariously in situations you could never even dream of. If baby’s future will consist of many a sci-fi binge session, then a science fiction baby girl, boy, or gender-neutral name will set them up for the ultimate adventure, otherworldly or otherwise.

More names from “Star Trek”

cute star trek baby names

Yesterday, we looked at three Star Trek characters that influenced U.S. baby names back in the late 1960s.

But those three were just a handful of the many interestingly-named characters from the original Star Trek . Here are some of the others.

For those with names that have appeared in the SSA data before, I’ve included links to the graphs.

*Aurelan is from Aurelan Kirk, Captain Kirk’s sister-in-law.

Do you like any of the names above? Are any usable, in your opinion?

Source: Star Trek (1966-1969) – IMDb

P.S. The word “ Trek ” itself started appearing in the data in the early 1970s, also likely due to the show.

2 thoughts on “ More names from “Star Trek” ”

I really can see quite a few of the names from both genders being usable today and not getting , “old and dated”, in 20+ years.

But most of them are fantastic names for, of course, science fiction, or even fantasy stories. I loved Data’s daughter’s name Lal, which I saw on here for a boy, and wonder if it was a reuse or not. I loved Data’s brother’s name Lor. I wanted to name another boy Lorne, after Lorne Greene (Bonanza/Battlestar Galactica) but people kept thinking I was saying Lauren, so I scrapped it. LOL I wonder how all of these children faired in school and later in life. Surely some must still be living? I am curious as well to surnames for these unique first names (would they be called Christian names?) would they be like, Moon? I went to college with a gal Ginger Moon, and yes, she was a ginger.

Aurelan is my favorite girl name. Merik is my favorite boy name.

Although you know Jayden is my favorite ;o)

I could totally see everyone mistaking “Lorne” for “Lauren,” at least in the U.S. (Perhaps less often in Canada…?)

The Next Generation – Riker’s Connecticut Newborn Session

With so much space travel news happening lately, I thought it fitting to share this session, in honor of The Final Frontier! And of course, it’s a studio newborn session. Once I photograph a session in my Greenwich, Connecticut studio space, I find it hard to forget about for awhile! I guess I’m going to have to face it – my professional life revolves around miniature humans and, well, I’m here for it. Follow me into the Great Beyond because this is one studio newborn session that will be sure to put a smile on your face. An out-of-this-world smile, if I may say so.

Let’s start with Riker’s solo images, shall we? My clients always come up with the most amazing baby names and Riker was no exception. How adorable is his Star Trek: The Next Generatio n inspired name? And what kid wouldn’t want to tell their friends that they’re named after Captain Picard’s first officer?! I think I can say I fully endorse a solid, fandom-inspired name! Yes!

0861 Looking Up Photography

This was such a fun setup, and so simple and contemporary per mom’s wishes. I love that Erica took this as an opportunity to update their family photos, and also to get some solo pictures of big brother Wyatt. Over the past year, so many families just didn’t have the time or opportunity to update their family portraits. Needless to say, Erica and David are big Star Trek fans and, as I mentioned above, used Star Trek: The Next Generation as the inspiration for Riker’s name! I am feeling so inspired to go search for all the cute “geeky” baby names now. What a wonderful way to show off your family’s personality!

Of course, the lighting in my studio didn’t disappoint. I’m obsessed with how wonderfully this space performs for me, for each and every session. It is absolutely wonderful! And I love the fawny backdrop I used for that first set of images, that went along with mom’s contemporary décor and added a pop of texture to Riker’s newborn gallery.

The studio lighting created the perfect environment for some family newborn pictures. I know I say that all the time, but it’s true! Those tones are so gorgeous and I adore them.
