This is honestly a cute name! And it could be used for either genders, and it would still be pretty!

I know a girl with this name, when she was born I didn't care because I wasn't into baby names at the time but now, I wish I could have suggested the name Irene, a more historical name and they're also religious.

Silly as a real name. It would be pretty ironic if someone named Peace grew up to be a bully. Irene, Salome, and Mira all mean the same thing and sound better in my opinion.

I think it's just plain silly. I love the word peace and the meaning of it, but as a name? Come on.

Silly as a name. A child named Peace will get teased.

It's so weird seeing people say that Peace is a silly name and should only be used as a middle name. I'm a 24 year old woman and my first name is Peace. I absolutely love my name. As a kid I would feel weird about it because people would try to be funny with it. But now it acts as a great ice breaker!

If you are a hippie, you will more than likely appreciate this name on a child of either gender. I wouldn’t use it for a boy though! This would make a great girl’s name. Especially as a middle name. Girls are full of life ~masculine or feminine~ and girls are mostly feminine, so technically they talk about Peace. What a cute and elegant name for a girl! So delicate! Peace can also be used as a boy's name, but it’s much more suited for a girl than a boy. Boys are typically following the masculine nature and they would probably get teased if they had a characteristic feminine name. I like this name, especially for girls who have grown up as hippies, which it’s not a bad thing.

Wow, lots of harsh comments and people back flashing this name. It’s hard to imagine that people would have so much hate for a NAME! That has a good meaning. Peace is what our lives need, Peace is what the world depends on. Without peace imagine this world, imagine how the world would be without peace. People would be miserable. Have you ever heard on the news people trying to kill other people? You wanna know why those people wanna kill other people? It's because they have no PEACE. And what’s wrong with hippies?

Love the name Peace. I may well name one of my children that. It makes me fall deep into it and make me wonder more what it really means.

Peace is a beautiful name, but I would prefer it as a middle name. I'm not saying that naming your daughter Peace as a first name is bad, I just personally prefer it in the middle… Edith Peace, Zoë Peace, Saskia Peace, Rose Peace, etc. It sounds nicer, most of the time.

It’s a pretty name and nice virtue. As for the people complaining about words for names, many names, in every language, were once words. Of course, some words aren’t name material, but I think this one is fine.

Why would you name a child after a word? That seems really stupid. Plus if this was a name it would sound really dopey and hippy.

My daughter's name is Peace. It's a beautiful name and in fact I am obsessed with my daughter's name. Many people compliment my daughter's name and want to name their baby as Peace.
In Hebrew it's Shalom, Greek it's Irene and in Spanish it's Pax/Paz. So, why can't we make the English word a name.

My first name is Peace. I was teased a lot in high school and wanted to change my name to Debbie, lol. But, as I got older people started complimenting me on my name. Now, I am obsessed with my name. When I see things with my name of it, I act like a child in the candy store. :-D. I LOVE MY NAME!

Peace is beautiful in theory, but people might say a "piece of sh-t" or "Piece of a--" to insult the poor kid.

Hello everyone, reading all these comments made me sad. My REAL name is Peace and I used to get teased a lot when I was in year 2-3 (Primary years) Then all my classmates/friends got used to the name and they stopped teasing me.
The name is a beautiful name and not hippie at all!
(And do name your child Peace!)

I love this name! My 4 yr old niece's name is Peace Alexandria and not once has any kid made fun of it, my whole family thinks it's cute and sweet, adults may think it's weird when they get introduced to her at first, but they've never made any rude comments about it.

Parents, don't go naming your child Peace. If you want to name your kid Peace, do it as a middle name.

Peace is a beautiful concept, but it sounds silly as a name.

"Makepeace" is a similar name. A famous bearer is William Makepeace Thackeray, the nineteenth-century English novelist and author of "Vanity Fair". I really love Makepeace!

I like the idea of Peace, although I wouldn't use it for a first name. Like someone else suggested above, maybe a middle name instead. :D

This is the ultimate hippie name, isn't it? It sounds very strange as a name in English-speaking countries, even if equivalent words for 'Peace' are common names in other cultures.

As opposed to Hippies, this name reminds me of Puritans. They used lots of "virtue" names, like Chastity, Hope, Patience, etc.

I think it's a beautiful name, and if you like the meaning but not the name there's always Irene, which also means Peace.

Yeah, I agree this is a total hippie name, this name had its moment in the 60s and 70s. It's done enough damage.

How could you say there is such a thing as a hippie name? It's a beautiful name and NOT A HIPPIE NAME and to any parents considering it, go right ahead.

I think this is an absolutely beautiful name. I don't know any Peace's, but it's a truly special name for a girl. I'm thinking of naming my daughter this.

It's nice, but I would name my daughter Pax ("peace" in Latin) or Paz ("PAHS", "peace" in Spanish) instead. There is a Spanish actress named Paz Vega. It's subtler.

This was the name of my grandmother, as she was born on 11/11/1918 (Armistice Day).

Good idea, Dahlis. I think Peace is definitely better as a middle name. I think someone with the first name Peace might get teased.
