Nature lovers, take note of this name—it couldn't be more appropriate for your future downhill skier. Aspen is a place name—the upscale ski resort town in Colorado—as well as a tree with delicate, heart-shaped leaves. Perhaps unsurprisingly, it means “aspen tree” or “shaking tree.” Aspen is a great gender-neutral choice that pays homage to the great outdoors in more ways than one.
