Baby Names Meaning Grace

Names meaning grace are gentle, elegant and quietly spiritual. Grace can mean physical gracefulness, kindness, or divine favour freely given — and names carrying it have a soft, timeless beauty that never dates. Gathered from Hebrew, Latin, Irish and beyond, these names mean 'grace', 'favour' or 'gracious gift', each noted with its origin. Whether you want the simple word name Grace or a richer form like Hannah ('grace') or Anna, this collection brings together the loveliest ways to bless a child with this gentle meaning.

Many grace names trace back to the same Hebrew root meaning 'favour' — which is why Hannah, Anna, Ann, Nancy and Hana are all, at heart, names meaning grace. Others come from the Latin gratia.

Grace names are perennial favourites for middle names too, because their soft single syllable flows after almost any first name while quietly deepening its meaning.
