Tools you won't find in a name book

Three ways NameQuest goes further: find names that work in two languages, match a new name to siblings you already have, or describe your dream name and let us generate it.

Names that are easy to pronounce, spell, and love in both languages — perfect for bilingual and multicultural families.

We score names by shared origin, similar rhythm, and matching endings — while avoiding the same initial, so no mixed-up backpacks.

Describe the name you're dreaming of and we'll surface matches — each generation shuffles fresh picks from the nest.

Name Genie

Describe the name you're dreaming of — in plain words — and the Genie searches every name we carry.

✦ Premium
Hi, I'm the Name Genie ✨ Tell me about your family — your languages, the feeling you want — and I'll find names to match.

Premium members get 50 Genie questions a day · answers come only from our verified catalog.

Every name has a story. Yours should too.

NameQuest is a baby-name discovery platform for the way modern families actually live — across languages, cultures, and borders.

Why we built this

Most name sites treat names as trivia: a meaning, a rank, a list. But for millions of families, choosing a name means honoring two heritages at once, making sure grandparents on both sides can pronounce it, and checking that it's written beautifully in more than one script. We built NameQuest because that family — the bilingual, multicultural, in-between family — deserved a tool made for them first, not as an afterthought.

What makes us different

Bilingual by design

Our Bilingual Finder surfaces names that live comfortably in two languages — pronunciation, spelling, and all.

Native scripts, always

Arabic, Devanagari, Hebrew, Greek, Cyrillic, hangul, kanji — we show names the way their cultures write them.

Family-aware matching

The Sibling Matcher finds names that sing alongside the children you already have.

Made for two

Naming is a team sport. Partner matching in our upcoming app lets you both swipe and celebrate mutual favorites.

Our promise on accuracy

Name meanings and origins are drawn from traditional etymology and can vary across regions, dialects, and family traditions. We review our database continuously and welcome corrections from native speakers — if we got something wrong about a name from your culture, please tell us. We'd rather fix it than defend it.

Where we're going

The website you're using today is chapter one. The NameQuest mobile app for iOS and Android — with partner swiping, a daily name, and swipe decks you can filter by origin and style — is chapter two. Join the newsletter in the footer to hear the moment it launches.

Built by parents, for parents — wherever in the world you're naming from. 🌍

Say hello

Questions, corrections from native speakers, press, partnerships, or advertising — we read everything.

💛 Message sent! Thanks for writing — we typically reply within two business days. (Demo note: this preview doesn't send real email yet; in production this form posts to our support inbox.)

Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 8, 2026

NameQuest ("we", "us") helps families discover baby names. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. It applies to namequest.app and, when they launch, our iOS and Android apps.

1. What we collect

2. How we use it

3. Advertising & affiliates

Free accounts see clearly labeled ads and sponsored placements. Ad partners may use cookies or similar technologies to measure performance; you can control cookies in your browser settings. Affiliate links on the Keepsake Shelf are labeled and may earn us a commission at no cost to you. We do not sell your saved names or personal information to advertisers.

4. Sharing

We share data only with service providers who help us operate (hosting, analytics, payments, email), when required by law, or with your direction (for example, sharing your list with a partner). We never sell personal information.

5. Your choices & rights

6. Children

NameQuest is made for expecting parents, not for children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13 (or the applicable age in your region). Saved baby names are your data, about a name — not an identity record of a child.

7. Security & retention

We use industry-standard encryption in transit and at rest, and keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes above or as required by law.

8. Changes & contact

If we make material changes, we'll notify you on the site or by email. Questions? Write to [email protected] or via our contact page.

This policy is a starting template for the NameQuest product and should be reviewed by legal counsel before public launch.

2. The service

NameQuest provides name discovery tools, meanings, origins, and related content for personal, non-commercial use. Name meanings and origins are provided for cultural and informational purposes; they draw on traditional etymology, which can vary by region, and are provided "as is" without warranty of accuracy.

4. Premium subscriptions

5. Ads, sponsorships & affiliate links

The free tier includes clearly labeled advertising and sponsored content. Some links are affiliate links, meaning NameQuest may earn a commission on qualifying purchases at no extra cost to you. Sponsored and affiliate content is always labeled.

6. Intellectual property

The NameQuest name, logo, design, and database compilation are ours. Names themselves belong to the world — you're free to name your baby anything you discover here (that's the point!). You may not copy or redistribute our database or content at scale without permission.

7. Disclaimers & liability

NameQuest is provided "as is." To the maximum extent permitted by law, we're not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from your use of the service. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

8. Changes, termination & governing law

We may update these terms and will post the new version here with a revised date. We may suspend accounts that violate these terms. These terms are governed by the laws of Ontario, Canada. Questions? Contact us or email [email protected].

These terms are a starting template for the NameQuest product and should be reviewed by legal counsel before public launch.
