Hopefully, in this article, I’ve managed to give you enough options to find the name you’re after, whether you’re looking for a name that’s more common, like “Crystal,” more unique, like “Eirwen,” or something that isn’t even a name but that could double as one, like “Ghjacciu,” the Corsican word for ice. I’m always incredibly curious to hear about how people are using the names they come up with, as well as the short list of favourites they’re likely to choose a final name from, so if you have a moment, please share! Willing to share what you came here looking to give a name to, and why you chose ice as a theme for your name in the first place? I would so love to hear about it in the comments down below! Or things could be quite literal – like you could be trying to name an ice fairy, an ice mage, or even an ice dragon (which I have an entire article dedicated to so check that out if you’re interested) for a fantasy piece you’re working on, for a game, or for some other reason. You could also be looking for an ice name because being “icy” or “cold as ice” doubles as meaning someone who is quite standoffish and chilling, even a little hostile in nature, and the thing you’re trying to name – like a fictional character you’re writing a novel about or a username for a toon you play in a video game, for instance – is ice cold personality-wise. Or if one of the favourite things about your new pet is that he or she is obsessed with ice from the freezer and it’s part of what helped you fall in love with the lovely creature in the first place. Like if you took in a new pet in the middle of the Christmas season and you want to name him or her after the ice cold winter months. You could be thinking about the person, place, pet, or thing you’re naming, and the tie that person has to the winter season. That being said, while it could be that you’re in fact doing this – searching for a name that relates to ice because you really love the winter season, think it’s quite beautiful (no one could argue with you there), and feel it holds a special place in your heart, there are other reasons to look for ice-themed names. I feel like nature-themes are such a beautiful way to go, and if you have a specific part of nature you love, whether it’s a season, a spot (like the ocean or the sea, or even the mountains or forests!), or something much more specific, like a type of plant (flowers make for great names, for instance!), using your favourite aspects of nature to find the perfect name makes a lot of sense.

I’ve written articles about nature-themed names in the past before, my favourite at the moment probably being a recent article I wrote up about ocean names. Which means, as far as naming things after a specific part of nature goes, ice and all the cold winter weather that comes with it, is pretty much a “solid” (yes, pun intended) way to go if you’re looking for a quality theme for a name.

There’s something magical about the winter, snow, and especially ice it’s captivating, cool, and pretty darn stunning to behold in all its glory.
