Paige is our third child and we’ve always picked names that are NOT in the top 100 or predicted to rise to that list. We liked the way it sounded with our other children’s names and our last name. We’ve also chosen family names for their middle names and it worked best with the middle name we chose.

Paige is our third child and since we have SO many filters we run names through we took a while to come to an agreement. I knew she would be a sweet girl with some spunk and independence. Both her siblings were winter babies and she was a summer. “Paige” felt happy and joyful and still fit our criteria of being an English/old world name that started with a vowel, didn’t rhyme with our last name, had the right amount of syllables and had a nice meaning (See that’s a lot of filters!). Paige means servant or one who serves and we knew we wanted to teach each of our children to have a heart to serve others. We also knew being the third she would be following her syblings around like a little paige so it seemed endearing too. One thing I would say is sometimes people think it’s Page but they usually ask. I don’t mind but I think it’s funny because I wouldn’t choose a name that meant a piece of paper in a book, that’s just me though!

  Paige doesn’t start with a vowel, but a consonant.

  And a page not only means a piece of paper in a book, but also someone from royal descent which would be a servant to other royals in that family lineage, to be their servant, while being a servant to royalty was the first step in becoming a knight, it also many times required them to be the messengers of the royal family. It also means little boy.
