  1. I always wanted to choose a name for my baby that had deeper meaning as having a child for me was a very deep intentional choice. My boyfriend and I chose the name Salem because it means peace. Peace is a core value of ours. We chose her middle name to be Brittany in honor of her father (my boyfriend’s) late sister Brittany Campbell who passed away when he was a child. This name is very special to us and so is our daughter.

  2. I love the name Salem. I feel like it’s different, a little mysterious, and strong. You either love it or you don’t. I don’t like that some people just automatically think of witches when they hear her name.

  3. My husband thought of the name Salem. It is not common without being too “out there”.
