  Personalized baby items are popular baby shower gifts because many mothers find out the gender of their baby before they give birth. If the mother has chosen a name, a personalized gift adds a special touch, and is appreciated by the mother. Baby blue gifts have traditionally signified a baby boy but can be given for either gender, especially if it's personalized with the baby's name.
  
  

Wall Hangings

• Decorating the baby's nursery is an exciting project while waiting for the new baby to arrive. Wall hangings such as plaques, individual wooden letters (spelling out the name) or hanging tiles can be chosen in baby blue, and personalized with the baby's name. Many parents like to hang gifts like this above the new baby's crib or changing table.
  
  

Blankets

• Baby blue blankets, embroidered with the baby's name, are a popular choice. Choose a soft, lightweight blanket for versatility. All babies use blankets, and many will adopt a favorite blanket as their security item. A special blanket that has their name on it will be treasured long after the baby outgrows the need for a security blanket.
  
  

Gift Baskets

• Baby gift baskets can be filled with items such as hats, booties, bibs, onesies, towels, robes and blankets. Choosing items that are all baby blue in color will give the basket a unified look. All of these items are also able to be personalized with a baby's name or initials. Monograms are popular on baby towels and robes.
  
  

Picture Frames

• New babies get their picture taken all the time. Baby blue frames with a baby's name on it are the perfect gift for a baby shower. Parents will be filling those frames up with cute photos in no time.
  
  

Toys

• Toys such as wooden trains, puzzles and silver rattles can be personalized as well. Usually the train cars are a single letter, carved out of wood and mounted on wheels, and they connect by a magnet forming a "name train". The letters are available in baby blue. Puzzles, also carved out of wood, have as many pieces as there are letters in the baby's name. Silver rattles, engraved with a baby's name, can have baby blue ribbon tied around the handle.
