Blossom is an English word name that means "flower" or "bloom", the moment a tree bursts into color in spring. It had a small vogue in the early 20th century, returned to television screens in the 1990s sitcom Blossom and is now part of the botanical revival alongside Poppy and Clementine. Blossom had fewer than 20 births a year in 2000, stood at number 3713 in 2015 and has jumped to number 1300 in 2025, its best rank yet.
