Unique Girls Names . . .

Hi D.,

I've always liked Nyla or Noelle. I've even liked Jovanna or Nicolina for a girl's name. My neighbor named her daughter Nyla and a girl I knew in college Ligaya (in the filipino language it means, 'happiness') I saw an orchid @ a greenhouse once that was called, Leilia.

Hope you find one...

Your request is very important! A name is something that we are stuck with forever. My neices name is Faline. Faline is the girlfriend of Bambi. She is the only Faline that I know and she still loves her name. She is over 30.

I hope this helps

Here are a few ideas:
Seeing as your son's name is Dimitri, the first name that came to mind was D'Amber. She was a good friend of mine in high school. It if of French influence. "De" in French means "of", but when "De" is followed by a word starting with a vowel it becomes "d'" and attaches to the following word. So- it would be De Amber, but becomes D’Amber. You could also come up with a name you really like that’s “ordinary” and change it up a little bit. Like my husband LOVES the name Chloe; I like it, but feel it never really grows up. So we have agreed that if we ever have a little girl her name will be Khloette and we’ll call her Khloe. We also plan that if we ever have a 2nd girl, she will be named after all three of my hubby’s sisters. Their names are Catalina (Cathy), Gloria, and Ana. So our second girl will be named Kathryn Gloriana. Maybe you have an Aunt, Sister, or Grandmother that is really special to you. Say her name is Renee’. Mixing it up with your name you could make it Redawne’ or Redawny. Also, my friend has a daughter that is half white and half African American. They named her daughter Ashaya Rubina. My father-in-law is named Ruben and thought that Rubina would be a cute way to name a child after him, with out naming ANOTHER person Ruben. (Also my brother-in-laws name.) So maybe there is a male that you’d love to name sake in some way. Say your hubby’s name is Lukas, your daughter could be Lukina or Lukalyn.

Have fun playing with all the possible combinations, and congratulations! ~J.

Congrats on the new addition on your family! I have three children and they all have names starting with M's(Marcus, Mason, & ...). When I had my daughter (middle child) I was looking for an M name that was pretty and was NOT common. I finally found the perfect name... Malia. Pronounced ma-LEE-ah. Malia is Hawaiian and is a form of Mary. Malia or Malie means quiet, gentle water. When the water is all flat on the surface, it is "malie". My daughter is not quiet at all but she loves her name and everyone is always commenting on how beautiful it is. I believe there is also a famous model/surfer in Hawaii named Malia:) Good Luck and keep Malia in mind:)

Congratulations on the new additon to ur family. I always seem to have the problem of finding a name that is not so common. With my daughter I chose the name Tiana. I don't hear it much, but before she was born I never heard of it. My son's name is Trinton. What I do is give them a semi-normal firt name and go all out with the middle name. My daughter's nejah and my son's is Kye. A girl in a previous post suggested my name unkowingly and it is a very good name, but it can get mispronounced a lot. It is pronounced (Day-shi-a). But if I have another girl I was thinking about Taleia or Taleya.

Hi D.:

My daughters name is Ryann... she is 17 years old and in all of that time I have only met one other girl with that name, she has a very unique and beautiful name.

D.

How about Bella? No matter what she'll be beautiful!

I what you mean when you dont want the same name as everyone else. As you can see my name is unique. T. just like Pam but with at T. Also we named our Daughter Morgan.
Congradulations and have fun with your little ones

I really like names that have meaning...like Faith, Justice, Chastity, Liberty, Serenity. My daughter's name is Jynnasis (pronounced "Genesis")

Okay, I am biased to the name A., well because it is mine. A. means divine strength and beauty. This name originated in Norway, but I am filipino/spanish. It is pronounced just as it is spelled. It is VERY unique and I have only met two other Astrids. Good luck and congratulations!

HI D.,

One of the names my husband and I loved if we had a girl was Lia and Amalia was another. Instead we had a boy and we named him Zane which we think is very unique! Good Luck with the search.

Deannda its unique and goews well with ur little boy

www.babynamesworld.com is great place to find names. My sons were both named after literary figures/characters. My oldest Aleksander is named for my favorite character ALeksei Karamazov from the Brothers Karamazov and my youngest Dante is named for Dante is named for Dante Alegeri author of the Divine Comedy (also known as Dante's inferno). The names I had picked for girls(if I'd had any) were: Aeriall Sabrine, Aleksianna Leigh, Nathaseeyah Aelanee. I'm not having anymore kids. But they were fairly unique but not too strange that they would be made fun of. Kids make fun of other kids with normal names, you don't want to give them starter fuel.

Congrats on the little girl you are about to have. Because of the job I have I see so many names in a day. One of the good ones for a girl I've seen is Neveah = Heaven spelled backwards. It probably wouldn't be so good to go as far as naming your little one: Precious Princess. No joking, it's true. One of the clients for my office actually named their child that. Have fun deciding.

Congrats on you new addition....So heres my idea, Chrystelle is pretty (chris-tell), I know of only two people with this name.

Ok, I know you have a ton of names on your list now, but I thought that I would add a few more. My own name has been unique growing up. I have only met one other A.. It is French and started being a mans name, but has made the switch! Other spellings: Aubrey (like the song from Bread) Aubri, or my own A.. Other names that I love: Keira, Lalani, Kalani, Zeira, Peyton, and Treslyn.

Hope this helps!

Hi D.,
We went through several names for our Native American/Spanish daughter. We ended up with Sierra Laura-Marie. Sierra for the Sierra Nevada's, Laura for her paternal grandmother and Marie for her maternal grandmother. If I had it my way I would have went with Sierra Glen, but hubby said Glen is for a dude...that is his name. His name Glenwood means the mountains merging together.

A mexican friend of mine recently asked me if I knew I named my daughter the mountain (lol).

She is Native American and Latin, go with something earthy but in spanish. Add or take away from them.

Floriana
Brisa
Roca
Tierra
Sierra
Arena

I had a friend that named her twin girls Ava and Maren for the sky and the sea. I really liked Maren. Good luck. My hubby and I are both from Irish descent and named our girl Logan.

Here's some for ya hehe

Ahna (ah-na)
Kiani (Key-on-ee Hawaiian kinda)
Leilani (Lay-lon-ee also hawaiian)
Sabra (Say-bra) A cherokee girl's name.
Niala (Ny-all-ah) Name I made up
Qil (a name my hubby made up)
Junet or Jeunet (pronounced a bit like Shoo-nay but more of a french Ju like in "au Ju" sauce. This is my daughter's middle name. We love it. :)
Ailiana (Ay-lee-on-ah)
Fairuza (Iroquois word for blue I think. Also an actress. Fairuza Balk)

Hope this helps!
M.

Congratulations on your little girl!!! Have you thought about naming her Unique?
Blessing to you and yours!

My daughters name is Skyler

Hi D.,
That is my sisters name as well. I too am part Cherokee Indian, wow what a small world. Anyhow, I always liked the name Trinity. I don't know why, but to me it kinda sounds like an Indian name. If I had another girl I was going to name her Trinity Nicole. Well that is about as unique as I get, lol.

H.

I like Catalina, Sofia, Delilah, Cassidy, Ivy, Alexa, Alleia, Leila, and a bazillion more.

I've always like the name Cheyenne, which I beleive is an American Indian name. It's not unique but it's not common these days.

I like Sinclair :)

Good Luck:)

How about Dejah (or spelled Dasia) or Denae? They both will go cute with Dimitri's name so when people ask their names, you can have the two D's.

i love the name zoe .. if i had a girl, that would have been her name. but i had a boy, wyatt. and that's it for me. good luck!!!

My daughter (who is also mixed) is Isis Makali Aurora. My husband picked three goddesses (from three different cultures) because he said his daughter would always be a goddess in his eyes. The sound of the name being unique is great, but give her something she can also know the meaning or source of that she can take pride in. Isis was almost Mandolyn Raine. Try A World of Baby Names book, it breaks them down by language/ethnicity.

There is a new song that i hear everyday on the radio, and its called Hey there Dalila, i love that name, but i already have a beautiful girl named Julianna Alexa, i stuck with the J names for all my kids. If you like i have seen it spelled DeLila also.
Good Luck! :-)

Pick a name that has meaning to you. My friend named her daughter after a place that they had stayed at in Hawaii when she was conceived. Personally I think it is cute to stay with the same first letter, since you and your son both start with "D" here are my votes:
Dalila means gentle in Kenyan
Demetria means goddess of Harvest in Greek
Destinee means destiny in French
Have fun with it,
R.

Hi D. - First of all, CONGRATULATIONS!
My name is very unique and throughout my lifetime it has received compliments. In school and anything I was involved with people new me because I was the only "C.". In the 50's my mom read it in in a book called "Pride's Castle" - in which the main character had a baby girl by that name. It left such an impression that ten years later on the delivery table, she remembered the name and gave it to me. I've had two friends give it to their daughters as middle names, but I think if you're looking for something unique it makes a wonderful first name. It has a couple of meanings...

caprice1 [kəˈpriːs] noun

an especially unreasonable sudden change of mind etc; a whim

caprice2 [kəˈpriːs] noun

a fanciful and lively piece of music etc

Wishing you a wonderful pregnancy and delivery!

Hey D.,

I named my oldest daughter, Soonseeahraye (pronounced Saun-see-a-ray). It Apache. It means Morning Star or Princess of the Sun Gods. She was the niece of Cochice. We nicknamed her CC because she was born in Cook County in Chicago. I got the name from an historical book I was reading. That is the correct spelling. Hope that helps in your selections. R.

D.,

Congratulations! There is a book called "Cool Baby Names" which is fun to look through. Also, if you go on the social security website you can look up whatever name you want. The site will provide how many babies were born with that name in a given year and what percentage of all the babies have that name. It's really neat and will definitely let you know of the uniqueness of your name!

Good luck,
K.

Hello,
here are a few ideas. I named my little girl Ava Grace which seems to becoming very popular. I also love the names Addison Anne, Isabella, And Kiera. I hope this helps and congrats!!

Hi D.,

Congratulations and good luck on picking a name.

My daughter has a unique name Haven Emerald. We are always getting compliments on how pretty her name is.

Other names that I like are:

Emerson
Tessa
Brisa
Diva pronounced Giva
Holland
Malia

Hi D.,

I too, have multi-racial kids and have a daughter whom I named, Karissa. I think, "Karissa" is a unique name--it sounded common, but so far, I have not heard of anyone called by that name in her school of about 500 girls. You may give your daughter a Cherokee Indian middle name to make it more unique.
I had considered these names too: Jordin, Juna, Ysabel, Jasmin Rae, Carmi....want more? Just kidding...I hope these names will help you and your husband decide the name of your new baby. God bless...

I have 2 girls, my first is named Aubrielle (Aubrie or Aubs for short) and Jocelyn (Joce or Joss for short) is the second.

I chose Aubrielle, hubby chose Jocelyn. . I love both names the same but am partial to Aubrielle.

Congrats on your new bundle of joy!

I think Aislynn is a very unique and beautiful name. Hadley is another one I like, along with Hayden. I also like Adison. That is what we were going to name our son if he was a girl. Good luck and congratulations. I'd love to know what you decide.

congrats on your new baby I have a daughter named Adeana, another named Domonique, My name is C., a sister named Jaline, and another named Kendra. I have always liked the name Palmyra and seleca . What is your husbands name? My husbands name is Dean I just put an a on each end for A dean A. Good luck with what ever you pick.

charlie was going to be my girls name, but if you want to stick with a name that starts with a d, i like dacia.

How about Mirlan (Mir-Lon). Its french. I met an african american woman a few yrs back in NY who also married a spanish/white guy. I always thought the name was beautiful.

My daughter's name is Briar Gray. Briar for our friend Heather who introduced me and her father and Gray like her daddy. I love love love the name Cambria. I also love the name Arden. There is a book called The Best Baby Name Book Ever that has a lot of good names. Good Luck!

I love the name Elora. If I had had more then one girl I would have used it.

Hi D.,

Congratulations on your baby girl! I also have an 11 year old stepson but he doesn't get to live with us full time, which has been too bad for him - his mom is an unstable character to say the least.

My h and I were so happy to be having a daughter and were thrilled to find out she was a girl when she was still in the womb. We named her Rachel (after my beloved grandmother - also an Old Testament character in the Bible who was known for being exceptionally beautiful) and her middle name is D. :) after a great friend who was very supportive to us during my pregnancy.

Two names I love for a girl are Alexandra (not that common these days but not totally different, I know) which means "helper of mankind" and also Zarafina, which is a very uncommon name meaning "heavenly" - I like it a lot. I didn't know of it before having my daughter or she might have ended up with it as her middle name. I was always set on Rachel for her first name due to the family relationship I wished to honor. Sarafina is another very similar name that is still uncommon, and means, "Ardent angel" taken from the seraphim in the Bible.

By the way, just so you know, I was reading something the other day that said the name "Unique" was becoming extremely common for kids!! The irony of it! LOL! I wouldn't name my kid that anyway...just doesn't seem like a name to me...??

God bless you and your family and especially your little one on the way - hope you have a healthy pregnancy and speedy delivery. :)

S. M.

Congrats! I hope this helps... My friend named her daughter Ileana. I had never heard it before but i really like it.

Good Luck! D.

I like Dalilah, I have 3 boys and if I had a girl I would have named her that but today I heard a little girls name "Mayasol" this woman was into the Native Culture and she said is "Maya" for the indians and "Sol" for the word sun in spanish Mayasol, I thought it was pretty.... good luck and congrats on your little girl.

Here are some names that i found that were unique to me... Olympia, Kaida, Alivia, Daysha, Danya. I thought i remembered more names but i guess thats a pretty good start. Congrats!!

I was also looking for a name that hasn't been used that much. I was so tired of the same names. When I found out that I was having a girl the first time I used the name Haven. I haven't heard this name used and I fell in love with this name. I also had the name Devin picked out as a back up. When I found out that I was having another girl, I named her Taylor Jenelle and she goes by her initials most of the time. : )
Good luck and I hope that you will find a name that you will love.
T.

I know you have a variety of names to choose from, but I am going to throw mine into the pot... lol.

Nasyrah - its interesting, Unique & since there is not very many names like it... you probably won't associate it with someone you don't like. :)

I thought I made it up... but apparantely when I googled it... it turns out to be someone's name... lol I believe its Indian but makes no difference to me... I've never met anyone with that name.... :)

Good luck and congradulations!

C.

How about Blessid as in blessed.
