Names That Mean Prosperous

  1. Floy
    • Origin:

      Diminutive of Florence
    • Meaning:

      "flourishing, prosperous"
    • Description:

      All but unheard of today, Floy was a popular Florence nickname used on its own in a century ago: it was Number 448 in 1914. Charles Dickens uses Floy as a pet name for the character Florence Dombey in his novel Dombey and Son. It has a jaunty edge to it, that could make it appeal to those who enjoy less frilly girl names.
  2. Kamran
    • Origin:

      Persian or Urdu
    • Meaning:

      "prosperous, successful"
    • Description:

      While Kamran is a common boys' name in Iran and Turkey, among other countries, if used in the US it will more likely be a respelling of Cameron, a unisex name which sounds exactly the same as Kamran. Due to cultural misunderstandings, we'd advise using the Kamran spelling only if you mean to select the Persian or Urdu boys' name, not as a "creative" form of Cameron for either gender.
  3. Mieko
    • Origin:

      Japanese
    • Meaning:

      "prosperous"
    • Description:

      One of the better-known Japanese names.
  4. Ayşe
    • Origin:

      Turkish variation of Aisha, Arabic
    • Meaning:

      "living, prosperous"
