The Ultimate List of Rock ‘n’ Roll Baby Names

Rock ‘n’ roll music has been around for decades, and it’s still going strong! If you’re looking for baby names that have a bit of an edge, one of these names might be perfect for your child. From classic names like Elvis to more modern options like Axl, there’s a rocking name out there for everyone.

I have a friend with a little boy called Elvis. Both parents are musical (one owns a music shop, and his wife is a music teacher) – and the name suits this little boy down to the ground. He has twin brothers called Waylan and Hendrix. You just know those boys are going to grow up and live up to those names (little Elvis plays the drums like nothing else!).

So just to totally speculate and give both some ideas (and steal some of their ideas) – here are over 500 Rock ‘n’ Roll Baby Names!

If you’re a fan of rock ‘n’ roll, why not give your baby a name that reflects your passion? Here are some of the most popular rock ‘n’ roll baby names, inspired by some of the biggest names in music.

For girls, there’s Allison, after former Rolling Stones bassist Bill Wyman’s daughter; Bowie, after the late, great David Bowie; Lennon, after John Lennon of The Beatles; and Joplin, after Janis Joplin. Other popular choices include Stevie (after Stevie Nicks) and Summer (inspired by Brian Wilson’s classic song).

For boys, there are plenty of cool options too. How about Mick or Keith, after The Rolling Stones’ frontmen? Or what about Kurt, after Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain? There’s also Axl, after Guns N’ Roses’ Axl Rose; Elvis, after the King himself; and Hendrix, inspired by Jimi Hendrix.

Whatever you choose, a rock ‘n’ roll baby name is sure to make a statement. So pick your favorite and let the good times roll!
