From the Bush to the Baby Name List
An Aussie country baby name doesn't necessarily need to have originated in Australia. It's more about the feeling: warm, relaxed, outdoorsy, independent and full of character.
Some choices have particularly strong Australian associations. Banjo recalls celebrated bush poet Banjo Paterson, while Clancy connects naturally with his famous Clancy of the Overflow.
And few names feel more Australian than Matilda, thanks to the enduring cultural connection of Waltzing Matilda.
