Feminine, uncommon girl names
| Mon, 08-01-2005 - 9:51pm |
Hi. I would like some girl name suggestions. I like names that are feminine and not overly popular, yet names that people have heard of before.
Please help! Thanks in advance.

Hi there!
feminine uncommon girls' names seem to have attracted a lot of really flowery names, which is good, but there are lots of plainer girls' names, equally feminine, which are currently completely uncommon. Examples:
Anne, Alice, Brigid, Catrin, Ellen, Frances, Griet, Helen, Iris, Jane(t), Lucy, Maude, Margaret, Moira, Norah, Ruth, Robin, Sadie, Tilda, Una, Willa.
Fancier ones:
Annabel, Beatrice, Caroline, Eleanor, Florence, Genev(r)a, Harriet, Imogen, Jeanine, Josepha, Lillian, Louise, Mathilda, Ophelia, Philippa (Pippa), Penelope, Roberta, Susanna, Tabitha, Ursula, Vivian, Winifred.
There are also things like flower names which were once common, but are now more or less limited to Heather, Rose and Lily. More unusal- Ivy, Iris, Daisy, Poppy, Myrtle and Hazel (drat you Julia Roberts!) and so on, there are thousands.
Good luck, and let us all know her name!
