Octave is a boy's name of French origin. Like Latin Octavius—once carried by the first Roman Emperor—but a bit more on the musical side, it's a lovely selection for any little songbird. During the Roman era, it was also tradition to give the name Octavius to the eighth-born child. So if your newest BFF happens to be eighth in line, you can bet on a name like Octave to bring on the celebrations!
