If you’ve got a kiddo with a March birthday (or are expecting to have one soon!), congratulations — you’re raising a little leader with a sunny disposition. Babies born in the spring and summer tend to be more positive and optimistic, and March-born kids in particular have a fascinating mix of traits that make them stand out. From zodiac signs to famous birthday buddies, here’s what makes your March-born child special.
Born to lead? It’s in the stars!
Research suggests that babies born in March and April are more likely to become CEOs than those born in June or July. Could it be their natural confidence and ambition? Maybe! If your little one is an Aries (March 21–April 19), leadership is practically in their DNA. Aries kids are bold, energetic, and fiercely independent — the kind who take charge on the playground and never back down from a challenge. They’re also social, passionate and driven by their hearts, though they can be impulsive and stubborn.
If your child is a Pisces (March 1–20), they might be a dreamer with a big heart. Pisces kids are deeply empathetic, artistic and imaginative, often drawn to storytelling, music or visual arts. They feel things deeply (sometimes a little too deeply) and may struggle with setting boundaries, but their kindness and creativity make them shine.
Birthstones, flowers and names
March babies get not one, but two birthstones: aquamarine and bloodstone. Aquamarine, with its cool blue hues, symbolizes calm and clarity, while bloodstone is said to bring strength and courage. Their birth flower, the yellow daffodil, is one of the first flowers to bloom in spring, symbolizing renewal and fresh beginnings.
If you’re looking for a name that suits a March baby’s springtime arrival, here are some fresh picks:
- Girls: Lily, Poppy, Iris, Eden, Florence
- Boys: Neo, Aries, Arvi, Forest, Xavier
- Gender-neutral: Willow, Robin, Storm, River, Wren
Famous March babies
Your child shares a birth month with some pretty impressive people! March-born legends include Albert Einstein (March 14), Dr. Seuss (March 2), Reese Witherspoon (March 22) and Lady Gaga (March 28). Washington state even boasts its own set of famous March birthdays, including NBA legend John Stockton (March 26) and musician Ryan Lewis (March 25).
March-born kids are full of potential, whether they’re destined to be CEOs, artists or fearless adventurers. With a mix of optimism, creativity and leadership energy, they’re sure to leave their mark on the world. So, if you’re celebrating a March birthday, get ready for a fun, dynamic ride because it’s going to be an exciting journey!
