A baby has been born — congratulations! Now you want to give something special. Not just another stuffed animal or a set of washcloths, but something that truly surprises the parents. Something that will be remembered.
What makes a birth gift truly special?
An original birth gift has three characteristics:
- It's personal — the name or birth date makes it unique
- It's high quality — parents notice the difference between cheap and good
- It's practical or emotional — or preferably both
The most popular birth gifts with names (2025)
Personalized onesie
A timeless choice. Choose organic cotton, the baby's name, your favorite font and color — and you have a gift that parents will photograph with a smile the first time they put it on. At Eigen Afdruk, you can fully personalize it online.
Complete birth set
A onesie, bib, and possibly a bodysuit — all with the same name or message. Neatly packaged and ready to give. This is the ultimate choice if you want to give something that makes an impression.
Name on bib
Practical and cute at the same time. A bib with a name is used daily and reminds parents at every meal who gave it to them.
Create a new baby gift basket
Combine a personalized onesie with a bottle of baby shampoo, a sachet of tea for mom, a cuddly toy, and a card. A complete new baby gift basket that you've put together yourself has much more value than a ready-made one.
Birth gift for a girl
For girls, warm tones are popular: light beige or darker beige onesie with an ornate font. Names like Noor, Sofie, or Lotte look beautiful in an elegant or elaborate font.
Birth gift for a boy
For boys, many parents choose a white or light beige onesie, with a bolder font like Playful or Handwriting. Names like Finn, Lucas, or Sem look strong and personal.
Budget: what does an original birth gift cost?
- €20–€30 — A single personalized onesie or bib
- €40–€60 — A complete set with 2–3 personalized items
- €60+ — Luxury new baby gift basket including personalized baby clothing
At Eigen Afdruk, shipping is free for orders over €40 — handy if you order a set.
When to order?
Preferably order as soon as you know the name, or choose a gift voucher if the name is still a secret. Delivery time is 3–5 working days, so you can even order a few days after the birth and still have it in time for the maternity visit.
