baby girl names

When it comes to picking a name for your new little bundle, many parents are trying to go with something that isn’t overly popular, mostly just to avoid their little one having to share a name with half her class when he goes to school.

If unique and exclusive to YOUR child sound like something right up your street, we have rounded up ten really stunning names for a little girl, all with lovely and/or historical meaning.

Happy picking, mamas:

Alithia

Alithia means truth in Greek, and we think it sounds all sorts of pretty too. Truthfully; this is one gorgeous name.

Amelie

Break through a sea of Emily’s with the lovely French name Amelie.

Bae

Short and sweet, Bae is the rare variation of a unisex name that has Latin origin and means berry.

Dezi

Dezi derives from the Spanish name Desiderio, which literally means ‘to desire.’

Ondine

We love looking to mythology when it comes to baby names, and did you know according to ancient Irish tales, Ondine was the spirit of the water? The name is also said to mean ‘little wave.’

Brinn

Brinn is a variation of Bryn, with a slightly more unisex sound. The name comes from the Welsh name for ‘hill,’ meaning it fits perfectly in with the trend of using nature as a source of inspiration when selecting names.

Amaryllis

This beautiful Greek name is also the name of a flower (popular around Christmas time) and translated means ‘shepherdess or country girl.’

Dari

Some claim Dari is a Hebrew name, while others insist it is Irish. Regardless, the name is really pretty and means ‘pearl of wisdom.’

Lainie

Lainie mean ‘shining bright,’ which we think is pretty much perfect for a brand new baby girl.

Lilja

Lilja is Swedish (or Finnish) and means ‘lily’ – as in the flower.Didn’t find The One? For more unusual and fabulous baby name choices, make sure you are also following us on Pinterest.
