Adding a baby’s name to any kind of gift makes it feel even more thoughtful. Whether it’s a cute doll or a pretty piece of wall art for the nursery, you can add their name to just about any gift to take it up a notch. And with retailers like Etsy, Crate & Kids and Caden Lane making it easier than ever to personalize gifts, you’re not limited to in-store stock or specialty stores. 

With our curated list of cute personalized gift-worthy baby products, you can easily find something that they’ll love and want to keep forever. One thing to keep in mind: make sure you order far enough in advance, because personalized items can take longer to arrive. And if you’re looking to reduce the amount of “stuff” this holiday season, little ones also love experience-based gifts (like going to the zoo!).

Personalized Toys and Books

Toys like plush dolls, wooden puzzles, and cozy loveys are perfect for personalizing. Adding a baby’s name, birthdate, or even a sweet nickname turns a simple plaything into a keepsake they’ll treasure for years. These personalized touches make the gift feel extra thoughtful and help ensure it stands out in a sea of more generic toys.

Personalized Blankets, Towels and Sheets

Want to personalize a gift that’ll be useful for a while, even when they’ve transitioned into toddlerhood? Then consider blankets, towels, or sheets. These everyday essentials get plenty of use, and adding a baby’s name or initials makes them feel extra special. Plus, they’ll grow with the little one.

Personalized Nursery Decor

Bring your baby’s nursery design together with a standout name sign or go more understated by adding pops of their name or initials on smaller items like the mobile or a picture frame. 

Personalized Clothes and Hats

Next to blankets, clothing and hats are among the easiest items to get personalized and have the most style options. Plus, because there are so many options, you can find products that fit into just about any budget.

Personalized Keepsakes

Keepsakes like baby’s first ornament, a silver spoon, or other special items become even more meaningful with personalization. Adding a name or date turns these gifts into lasting reminders of the baby’s early days and special milestones.
