I love it, but more so for a mn. Would be a nice mn for a precious rainbow baby.

A “rainbow baby” is the first child born after the loss of another child.The problem with using words that aren’t typically used as names is that many people will already have other associations with them, and not all will be positive. Some will be associated with divisive opinions, like LGTBQ+ rights, however depending on how willing you are to make a political statement with your child’s name, this could be positive.

I LOVE it, maybe because I love rainbows in general, but, yeah, I love it.

I’d presume that the child passed away as a rainbow child is used for the loss of a baby. Rain is lovely though.

Too silly and hippy. I think about how on Black-ish the mom was named Rainbow, but she was a doctor and thought people didn't take her seriously because of her name. I'd have a hard time taking a Rainbow seriously.
