Meaning of Cerulean

Cerulean is a unique and evocative name for boys, pronounced as suh-ROO-lee-un (/səˈruːliən/). The name originates from the Latin word "caeruleus," meaning "dark blue" or "sky blue," and it conjures images of expansive skies and tranquil seas. Cerulean is often associated with a sense of calmness and serenity, making it an appealing choice for parents seeking a name that embodies peace and natural beauty. While not widely used, as evidenced by its rare occurrences in recent years—only appearing sporadically in the U.S. rankings—it stands out for its distinctive sound and vivid imagery. A feminine variation of the name, Ceruleana, also exists but remains equally uncommon. Choosing Cerulean for your child could imbue their identity with a touch of the extraordinary, reflecting both depth and clarity.
