Rare or uncommon girl names that are girly

[mummy2be...]

My lg is called marella, which every time I tell someone they tell me they've never heard it before. We call he Rella or rellie for short

I love Constance, Connie for short, but OH hates it. I also quite like Verity but again... sigh.

As isabelle is so popular I would rather have a more unusual name for this one if it's a girl. For a boy we have decided Joel.

Oh and Megan, but I'm not sure if that's really popular or not. And Zara is a lovely name.

There is one name I absolutely adore and it's definitely rare and super elaborate, girly, over the top... Alexandrina.

I knew a girl with this name and it didn't hurt that she was a model, tall, porcelain skin, long dark hair, just stunning!

I teach an Alezandrina (with a z not x) very pretty.

I am still loving Vivienne and Jocelyn

I love Avonlea, and its very very rare but soo pretty and feminine!

 

[LoolaBear]

Rowena can be said Row-ee-na or Row-en-na
eitherway pretty, unique, uncommon but traditional all at the same time. my mum wanted to call me it as it was a character she loved in a book she was ready whilst in labour with me (crazy woman lol) but my dad vetoed it as it was a name that was a bit 'out there' at the time.

 

[Guppy051708]

your mom must be awesome!!! LOL

Im digging the name Shiloh atm....does it sound girly or is it more....for both genders? I like it a lot but i want something super feminine.

 

[LoolaBear]

Shiloh is also the name of brad and angelina's first biological child. as soon as someone famous names their child a name i like i instantly go off it lol.

have you tried looking at names of different cultures/countries/languages? sometimes this pulls out really beautiful names (that perhaps you could change the spelling to slightly to suit yourself) and then as its from a complete different walk of like to your own it then makes it completely unique to you but its not something stupidly unique and made up its just used in different parts of the world?

just an idea x

 

[Guppy051708]

I have. I think my problem is a lack of super creative babyname websites. I know the usually ones like nameberry, behind the name, nymbler, but otherwise i cant find sites that have names like that, im def open!

 

[Annie77]

Talia or Talitha

 

[LoolaBear]

Let me know what you think of these names. I am considering them as well for baby #3 (if girl)

 

[Guppy051708]

Thanks ladies! those are all interesting!

Funny enough my son is named Elliot i like it for a boy and a girl but i much much prefer for it on a boy.

So i think we found a name we love Cicily [SIS-ə-lee] or Cecilia [sə-SEEL-yə]. I love the nn Sissy. ....does that sound bad? what are honest opinions?

 

[Morgan27]

Oh I love those names, Guppy. Especially Cecily And calling her sissy is pretty cute. My son sometimes calls his sister sissy and i find myself doing the same.

I also love your sons name. I just love the name, for either boy or girl

 

[Guppy051708]

Bumping. I swear i change my mind on a daily basis im really digging Lilah [LIE-lah] and Ella but if course the latter is popular
