Name Your Baby after Your Tractor!

Unique and meaningful baby names are all the rage right now. If you are expecting a new addition to your family, here are some suggestions based on my favorite tractors:

If you love IH, consider these names…

For a boy:

Cyrus (as in Cyrus McCormick, founder of the Farmall company)

William (as in William Deering, another founder of the Farmall company)

For a girl:

Nettie (wife of Cyrus McCormick and one of my personal heroes)

Irma (IH’s fictional spokeswoman, Irma Harding)

If you’re a fan of Allis Chalmers, consider…..

For a boy:

Edward (for Edward P. Allis, company founder)

Thomas (for Thomas Chalmers, company founder)

For a girl:

Alice, or go all-in and spell it Allis!

Case collectors, consider….

For a boy:

Case (works especially well as a middle name)

Casey

Jerome (founder of the company: Jerome Increase Case).

For a girl:

Cassandra

Kaysey

Lydia Ann (wife of Jerome I. Case)

If you enjoy John Deere tractors, consider….

For a boy:

John (bonus points if coupled with Deere as a middle name)

Stephen, WIlliam, or Charles (son-in-laws who saved the company)

For a girl:

Emma (John’s daughter, her husband saved the company)

Sarah (John’s mother, who raised him as a young widow)

For Oliver fans who want to branch out beyond Oliver and Olivia, consider…

For a boy:

James (as in James Oliver, company founder)

Charles (as in Charles Hart AND Charles Parr! Double win!)

For a girl:

McKenzie (one of the first companies the Oliver Farm Equipment Company

purchased. The merger bought them a line of potato farming equipment.)
