      Greek
    • Meaning:

      "to flourish"
    • Description:

      Thalia was one of the Three Graces in Greek mythology, and also the Muse of comedy and pastoral poetry, making this a Hellenic choice worthy of consideration.
  7. Gloria
    • Origin:

      Latin
    • Meaning:

      "glory"
    • Description:

      Gloria is beginning to move beyond its de-glamorized Grandma image, most recently thanks to glamorous young Hollywood parents Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard, who chose it for their second daughter. Gyllenhaal was quoted as saying they had been inspired by Patti Smith's rendition of the Van Morrison song "Gloria" at a concert and thought " 'We'll name our daughter that one day'."
  8. Tatia
    • Description:

      Tatia is a feminine name with multiple cultural origins. In Georgian culture, it's a diminutive of Tatiana, while it also has roots in Native American, Greek, and Latin traditions. The name possibly derives from the Latin 'Tatius,' a Sabine king in Roman history, or from the Greek 'tatto' meaning 'to establish.' In some interpretations, Tatia means 'princess' or 'father's girl.' The name has a gentle rhythm and graceful quality with its soft consonants. While not widely common in the United States or Western Europe, Tatia enjoys modest popularity in Eastern European countries and Georgia. The name's brevity and melodic quality make it easy to pronounce across different languages. Those named Tatia are often perceived as having a classic elegance balanced with an approachable warmth.

  9. Flavia
    • Origin:

      Latin
    • Meaning:

      "golden, blond"
    • Description:

      An ancient Roman clan name, Flavia is one choice that's unusual but historic. Now a Top 60 name in Italy, Flavia has been a rarity in the US, but with the upswing in F names for girls, this could change. Seen more in literature than real life, Flavia was used as far back as an1580 romance, then in a William Dean Howells novel and as a Princess in The Prisoner of Zenda. Although the original pronunciation is FLAH-via, Flavie (as in flavor) could make a cute nickname.
  10. Nia

      Swahili; Welsh form of the Irish Niamh
    • Meaning:

      "resolve; brilliance"
    • Description:

  11. Analia
    • Origin:

      Combination name, Ana plus Lia
    • Description:

      Analia is a melodic newcomer to the US Top 1000, a fresher spin on the Olde Worlde Anamaria. It charted in the US from 2009 to 2012, and then reentered the popularity list in 2015. El Rostro de Analia is a popular Spanish language telenova on the Telemundo channel, which probably greatly contributed to its initial entry to the US list in 2009 at Number 331 when it was unranked the previous year!
  12. Minervia
    • Description:

      Minervia is a feminine name derived from Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom, strategic warfare, arts, and trade. The additional 'i' creates a slight variation from the classical name. Minerva herself was the Roman equivalent of the Greek goddess Athena, representing intelligence, reason, and strategy rather than blind battle force. The name carries powerful associations with wisdom, creativity, and scholarly pursuits. While Minerva occasionally appears in naming records, Minervia is significantly rarer, offering a more unique option that still connects to classical mythology. The name has an elegant, sophisticated quality with its flowing syllables. Parents drawn to classical names with strong feminine symbolism might find Minervia appealing as a distinctive alternative to more common mythological names.
  13. Ieshia
    • Description:

      Ieshia is a feminine name that appears to be a variant spelling of Iesha or Aisha. The name has Arabic origins, with Aisha meaning 'alive' or 'prosperous'. It gained popularity in the United States particularly during the 1980s and 1990s as part of a trend toward creative spellings of traditional names. Ieshia offers a distinctive spelling variation while maintaining the melodic sound of the original. While less common today than during its peak, Ieshia continues to be chosen by parents seeking a name with both cultural significance and a modern feel. The name carries connotations of vitality and thriving, reflecting its etymological roots.
  14. Theodosia
    • Origin:

      Greek
    • Meaning:

      "gift of God"
    • Description:

      This feminine form of Theodosius has long been buried deep in the attic, but might be a good discovery for the parent who wants to move beyond Theodora. Vice President Aaron Burr named a daughter Theodosia ("Dear Theodosia" is a song in the smash musical Hamilton), and it was the birth name of silent screen vamp Theda Bara. Theodosia actually appeared on the US popularity lists in the 1880s and 90s.
  15. Gracia
    • Origin:

      Spanish variation of Grace
    • Description:

      Although Gracia is the literal Spanish translation of Grace and is used as the Grace equivalent in Spanish-speaking countries, where it's pronounced grah-see-ah or grah-thee-ah, it's also a long-time if unusual Grace variation pronounced gray-sha. You might consider Gracia if Grace is getting too commonplace for you.
  16. Celia
    • Origin:

      Latin
    • Meaning:

      "heavenly"
    • Description:

      Celia, splendidly sleek and feminine, is a name that was scattered throughout Shakespeare and other Elizabethan literature, but still manages to feel totally modern. Derived from the Latin Caelius, it means "heavenly".
  17. Zelia
    • Origin:

      Hebrew
    • Meaning:

      "zealous, ardent"
    • Description:

      An appealing name almost unknown in our culture but with roots in several others; worldlier than cousins Celia and Delia.
  18. Dalia
    • Origin:

      Hebrew, Spanish, or Swahili
    • Meaning:

      "branch; dahlia; gentle"
    • Description:

      Similar in sound to the flower name Dahlia, this gentle but distinctive name, heard in many cultures, hits that Golden Mean between too popular and too unusual. In Lithuanian mythology, Dalia is a goddess of weaving and of fate.
  19. Tasia
    • Description:

      Tasia is a feminine name that originated as a diminutive of Anastasia, which comes from Greek meaning 'resurrection.' This shortened form maintains the melodic quality of its longer counterpart while offering a more succinct, modern feel. Tasia gained modest recognition in the late 20th century as parents sought distinctive yet accessible names. The name carries a blend of classical Greek heritage with contemporary appeal. Its international character makes it recognizable across different cultures while remaining relatively uncommon. Tasia's bright vowel sounds and graceful cadence give it a feminine elegance without excessive ornamentation. The name appeals to parents drawn to names with classical roots but seeking something less common than traditional favorites.

  20. Tricia
    • Origin:

      Diminutive of Patricia
    • Meaning:

      "noble, patrician"
    • Description:

      Back in Patricia's midcentury heyday, Patty/Patti was the plebeian nickname while Tricia/Trisha and Tish/Trish carried a snobby-yet-insubstantial image associated with then First Daughter Tricia Nixon.
