Hey there, Auntie-to-be! 🎉

So... what are they gonna call you?

Maybe you’re already dreaming up adventures and birthday surprises. Maybe you’re the chill aunt, the glam aunt, the crunchy auntie with the wrap carrier, or the “never shows up empty-handed” kind of aunt. Whoever you are, one thing’s for sure: you deserve a name that fits.

Like “GoGo” and “Glamma” for grandmas, aunties are claiming names that match their energy. Whether you want something classic, cultural, or just plain fabulous, here’s a list of 75+ auntie names to help you find your perfect match.

🌍 Cultural & Traditional Auntie Names

Looking for a name that honors your roots? These are beloved across generations—and across the globe.

  • Achi (Gujarati)
  • Auntie (British, Caribbean)
  • Bua (Hindi, paternal aunt)
  • Chachi (Hindi, uncle’s wife)
  • Khala (Arabic, maternal aunt)
  • Masi (Hindi, maternal aunt)
  • Ta (Vietnamese)
  • Tia (Spanish)
  • Tita (Filipino, Latinx)
  • Titi (Puerto Rican, Dominican, other Caribbean)
  • Zia (Italian)
  • Yi (Mandarin)

💡 Villie Tip: Cultural names are beautiful—just check in with family first to make sure you're honoring traditions intentionally.

💖 Modern & Stylish Auntie Names

You’ve got style, personality, and probably a signature sunglasses look. These names are perfect for the on-trend aunt:

  • Bibi
  • Coco
  • DeeDee
  • Gigi
  • Lala
  • Lulu
  • Momo
  • Sasa
  • Sissy
  • VeeVee
  • Zaza

💡 Try this: Think of your name or initials and zhuzh them up. “Auntie Rachel” becomes “Rara.” “Tina” becomes “TT.”

🧁 Classic & Cozy Aunt Names

These names feel like hugs, tea, and someone slipping you a cookie when your mom says no.

  • Auntie
  • Auntie [First Name]
  • Aunt [First Name]
  • Aunty (classic with a twist!)
  • Nanny (yes, some aunts use it too!)
  • Sissy (especially for younger siblings)
  • Sis
  • Nan
  • Auntie G
  • Auntie M (for Wizard of Oz vibes ✨)

🌟 Unique & One-of-a-Kind Auntie Names

Because some aunts just don’t fit a box—they make their own.

  • Bubbles
  • Boo
  • Birdie
  • Cookie
  • Fancy
  • G-Ma Lite
  • Lovie
  • MooMoo
  • Poppy

Need Help Picking?

Here’s a quick trick:

  • Do you want your name to sound playful? Try repeating syllables: Lala, Kiki, Sasa
  • Want something timeless? Use your full name or a short variation: Aunt Jo, Auntie Em
  • Want something fun and brand new? Let the baby decide! Many auntie names start out as baby babble and stick forever.

Villie’s Take

Choosing an auntie name is about more than just syllables—it’s about the role you’ll play. Whether you’re the memory-maker, babysitter, secret-keeper, or snack-giver, your name is your badge of honor.

And as that baby grows? Your name will mean comfort. Celebration. Home.

So what’s your pick?
Let us know—we’d love to add it to our growing list of modern village names. 🫶
