Are you looking for a beautiful nature-inspired girl's name that starts with S?

  3. Sage. A wise old person, or an evergreen shrub—choose your meaning!
  4. Skye. A variation of Sky with place name panache via the Isle of Skye, the second largest island in Scotland. Kids may appreciate the link to the Paw Patrol character.
