When I say “Nancy Meyers Kitchen,” you know exactly what I mean. Copper pots, hydrangeas in vases, and an impossibly perfect farmhouse sink. Everything about the writer-director’s aesthetic screams Butter Mama. And if you like all of that, it’s no wonder your baby’s name style might be equally biased.
Meyers’ films have been giving us turtleneck-wearing heroines in dreamy homes for decades, and their names are as memorable as their interiors. Classic but not too formal. It’s warm, but not uncomfortable. And they all sound like they belong to someone who owns really good linens, which might be perfect for a Nantucket summer.
Let’s get to know them.
Whichever name you end up with, may your child grow up to have Erica Barry’s beach house, Iris’ cottage, and Jane’s garden. Mom can dream.
