Being a San Francisco parent means you have a big heart and killer calves: you’ve hiked to the top of Nob Hill with a toddler in tow and we’re betting you’ve been on MUNI one too many times while pregnant. If you’re looking for boy baby names or girl baby names, from the Bay Bridge to Ocean Beach, we’ve revisited our favorite city’s streets and neighborhoods for some adorable baby name inspiration. Read on for the list!

Alma

Alma de Bretteville Spreckels was an old-school SF socialite and philanthropist who—along with her husband Adolph—gifted the city many an iconic institute including the Legion of Honor. Most famously, though, she’s the model for the statue in the middle of Union Square (Dewey Monument).

Andreas

There’s no reward without a little risk, and SF residents know that the San Andreas fault runs right through our city. It keeps us on our toes, like your little guy might! 

Angelou (or Maya)

The famous poet, activist and author who was awarded over 50 honorary degrees in her lifetime, was also the first African-American streetcar operator in San Francisco.

Ashbury

You have to be okay with a certain “aesthetic” to name your kid after this iconic street but you’ll likely get a free-thinker on your hands. Plus we think Ash is just the cutest nickname.

Bart

What could be more SF than naming your kid after the Bay Area Rapid Transit train?

Bay

The city by the bay couldn’t get more recognizable in this local name that also makes a perfect middle name, too.  

Broderick

You know it as the street, but did you also know it’s the last name of an abolitionist senator who died as a result of a wound inflicted during the last known duel within the boundaries of SF? Well, you do now. 

Cesar (or Chavez)

Both names pay homage to Cesar Estrada Chavez, a fierce fighter for civil and labor rights who co-founded (along with Dolores Huerta) National Farm Workers in 1962. You also know it as the name of what was once known as Army Street.  

Charlotte

For Charlotte L. Brown, who was one of the first people in the US to legally challenge racial segregation. In the 1860s Charlotte was removed (by force) from a horse-drawn street car for being a person of color. She filed a lawsuit. It took several years, but in 1865 she won.

Clayton

One of San Francisco’s lovelier streets, it’s also one of the shorter streets, starting at Fulton and winding its way up Ashbury Heights toward Twin Peaks where it affords some pretty stunning views.  

Clement

Home to a diverse array of foods and one of the best neighborhood farmer’s market in the City, we love the idea of naming a kiddo this and calling him Clem for short. Name for Roswell Clement who is often credited for the idea of creating Golden Gate Park.

Cliff

For something with a little versatility, this “regular” name comes from the iconic Cliff House (did you know they have the best breakfast biscuits in the West?). The Cliff House burned down in 1907 but was rebuilt, and rebuilt again to become the more modern structure that stands today.

Cole

Cole Valley has a rep for being one of the most kid-friendly hoods in the city, so why not name your kiddo for it, too?

Dolores

It’s not just a beautiful street name or your favorite park. It’s the namesake of the first mission in SF (which is also home to one of the only cemeteries within the city proper). Even more fun, it’s also the name of Dolores Huerta, who fought for migrant worker rights and co-founded National Farm Workers in 1962.

Duboce

This street and park are part of every N-Judah rider’s commute. Named after a colonel in command during the Spanish-American War (Victor Duboce). As long as you pronounce it right, you’ve got a sweet-sounding name that has a Parisian tinge to it.

Francisco or Francis

This is probably the most overlooked but most obvious name for any kid hailing from our city’s boundaries.

Gavin

Most people recognize him as Governor of California, but once upon a time, Gavin Newsom was our fair city’s mayor.

Geary

Why choose Gary when you can go with the totally San Francisco variation, Geary? One of the longest, cross-town streets in the city, Geary Blvd. takes you from Market Street all the way out to the ocean (and so does the 38!).

Harvey

Harvey Bernard Milk was the city’s first openly gay official, elected to the Board of Supervisors in 1951. Today we remember Harvey Milk for his courage and tenacity in standing out by standing up—a true San Francisco attitude. 

Hayes

It’s a valley, it’s a street and at one time was the last name of a prominent SF family. We think it would be an adorable first name, too.

Jack (London, Kerouac, Hirschman)

This classic name has plenty of SF-appeal: Jack London spent quite a bit of time in San Francisco throughout his years living at Beauty Ranch in Glen Ellen; Jack Kerouac became an adopted literary son of the city through the Beat Generation and Jack Hirschman was named SF Poet Laureate in 2006.

Juana

Want to name her something fierce? How about naming her after Juana Briones y Tapia de Miranda, the first female property owner in the state of California. She was born in Santa Cruz, of Spanish and African descent, and raised in the Presidio where she became known for being a healer and midwife.

Kamala

Before she was Vice President of the United States, Kamala Harris was San Francisco’s District Attorney from 2004 to 2011. She was born in Oakland and received her law education both at Howard University in D.C. and right in SF at the Hastings College of Law. 

Karl/Carl

If you’ve lived in SF anytime in the last decade, you likely follow Karl the Fog on Twitter. If not, newsflash: after all these years, our beloved fog has its own name. The “C” variant is also an SF street name.

Lawrence 

The founder of City Lights, the iconic North Beach bookstore and world-renowned publishing company, Lawrence Ferlinghetti turned 100 in 2019. To celebrate, the city of SF declared his birthday, March 24, officially “Lawrence Ferlinghetti Day.” Name your kid after this guy and we can promise spontaneous poetry will become a household thing. 

Leola

Leola King, aka the Queen of Fillmore, opened her first nightclub in the 1950s, back when Black-owned and women-owned businesses were scarce. She became a highly successful businesswoman and owned several properties and nightclubs, including the Birdcage. Her clubs hosted greats like Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald, helping establish the Fillmore District as the Harlem of the West.

Lillie

This perfectly sweet name has a pretty fierce backstory: Lillie Hitchcock Coit was a champion of SF firefighters and the benefactress who gave us the iconic Coit tower. Known also as Firebelle Lil, she was considered an eccentric woman who smoked cigars, wore pants (back when ladies weren’t supposed to) and gambled in male-only houses around North Beach.

Lombard

You love this crazy, curvy street every time your tourist relatives insist on snapping photos in front of it. It also makes a snazzy first or second name for a boy or a girl.

Lotta

The nickname of Charlotte Crabtree, Lotta was raised in the foothills of Grass Valley, CA during the gold rush where she honed her theatrical skills. Though she did perform frequently in San Francisco, her real legacy is Lotta’s Fountain—at Market and Kearny, the site of annual gatherings every April 18 to commemorate the Great Earthquake of 1906. Lotta frequently donated the money she earned as a stage performer for charities or to beautify the city she loved so well. 

Lowell

Lowell High School is the oldest public high school west of the Mississippi. It was founded in 1856 as the Union Grammar School but became Lowell in 1894. Though it was separated by genders for a time in its early history, Lowell High School was open to both boys and girls 1866.

Marina or Marin 

If you like the neighborhood you’ll love the name, but don’t forget it also means “of the sea” so it’s fitting for an SF kiddo no matter their zipcode. Alternatively, you could go with Marin, for our neighbors to the north.

Noe

Named for José de Jesús Noé, he served twice as alcade (essentially, a mayor) of Yerba Buena. One of his last acts while serving—along with Lt. Bartlett of the US Navy—was to officially rename Yerba Buena as San Francisco. At one time he owned land that covered much of what we now know as Noe Valley, Eureka Valley, Fairmont Heights, Glen Park and Sunnyside.

Posey

While he’s not a native SF-er, Giants catcher #28, Buster Posey, is as iconic an SF name as they come.

Vicki 

Vicki Manalo Draves was born in San Francisco, Vicki was the first woman ever to win two gold medals during one single Olympics. In 1948, not only did she receive two gold medals in diving, she also became the first Asian American ever to win a gold medal.

William or Willie (Brown, Leidesdorff, Mays)

Willie Brown was the 41st mayor of San Francisco and the city’s first-ever African American mayor. William Leidesdorff was an African-American who sailed to SF from the Virgin Islands in 1841 and became a respected, prominent businessman and politician. Willie Mays, one of the greatest baseball players of all time, spent his primary years playing (14 years) playing for the SF Giants (you’ll find his statue in front of AT&T—we mean Oracle—park). 

Make sure to capture all the adventures with your little San Franciscan—and share them with your family and friends near and far—with the Tinybeans app. The secure platform puts parents in total control of who sees and interacts with photos and videos of their kids.

Terranea Resort | Rancho Palos Verde, CA

Terranea Resort

There's so much to love about this gorgeous property on the Palos Verdes Penninsula and one of our favorite amenities at Terranea Resort is the heated pool.

There is a 140-foot waterslide at the pool and a splash pad for little ones. And hot tubs. And cabanas you can rent! And lawn games like ping pong, Connect Four, and foosball!

There comes a moment in every tired parent’s life when they suddenly realize: Oh no—I’m going to be stuck making meals for these tiny tyrants forever!

And though it’s not really “forever,” it honestly feels that way: the planning, the buying, the prepping, the serving, the (expected) refusal, the adjusted offering, the clean-up—and when it’s all over, somehow it’s time for the next meal. Sure, there are dinner hacks and creative lunch ideas to expedite the process, but you’re still in charge of making it all happen. And your reward is eating leftover crusts or a few servings of the same three meals your kids will eat—while standing over a sink or trash can. Ask me how I know.

It’s why I did the praise hands emoji IRL upon learning that Club Wyndham was partnering with Take a Chef to offer a complimentary private chef service that parents deserve more than anything in the world. Imagine not doing any of those mind-numbing tasks, and instead, kicking up your feet while a seasoned chef caters to your tastes.

When you book a stay at one of several participating Club Wyndham resort locations (from NYC to Atlanta to the US Virgin Islands) through the end of the year, you and up to four (!) guests will be treated to a farm-to-table meal prepared en-suite by a local private chef. My husband and I begged my in-laws to watch our kids so we could enjoy a weekend away, though you could just as easily make it into a much-deserved friends’ trip.

All you need to do is visit the Extra Holidays Promotion Page to book your stay, after which you’ll receive a special freebie code to use on wyndham.takeachef.com. Then you’ll just answer a couple of quick questions about your preferences (e.g., date, lunch or dinner, number of guests, ideal cuisine). Within a few hours, you’ll receive up to three chef proposals—that’s right, you’ll be fawned over!—and get to choose the top-tier, nugget-free menu that makes your heart sing. There’s even a “Surprise Me!” option if you really want to make zero decisions.

The chef whose rose proposal you accept will take care of everything. We’re talking local farmer’s market shopping for ingredients, meal prep and plating, course pacing, and also… the dishes. And if you end up with leftovers—ones you’d actually want instead of holding onto out of guilt—they’ll pack them up in the fridge, no problem. (Shout-out to Chef Terrell McMullen in NYC, who did just that while my husband and I ate espresso-amaretto mousse in joyful silence.)

Doing absolutely no work is as magical as you think it is. And passing out afterward, sufficiently spoiled, in a hotel bed you haven’t made is the cherry on top.

Editor’s note: This hotel stay was paid for by Club Wyndham, but all opinions belong to the writer.
