Hedge your bets and pick this leaf-ly name! Haig is a boy’s name with Old English roots, meaning “enclosed with hedges.” This is considered to be a habitational name, as it refers to a place or locale that people inhabited; in this case, somewhere that was surrounded by hedges. A choice like this is sure to help baby understand when they should be more closed off and protect themselves, and when they should learn to step out of their comfort to grow. And, while Haig has often been used mainly as a surname, it certainly deserves its moment in the sun as a given name.
