      "help"
    • Description:

      Traditionally a masculine name, but as Ezra — which shares a root with Ezer — becomes more feminine, who's to say Ezer can't be used for girls? Ezer is the name of masculine characters in the Bible, but as a word, it is often associated with women whose strength help rescue humanity.
  11. Olli
    • Description:

      Olli as a feminine name is quite unusual, as it is traditionally a Finnish and Estonian masculine name, functioning as a diminutive form of Oliver or Olavi. In Finnish tradition, Olavi derives from the Norse name Óláfr, meaning 'ancestor's descendant.' When used for girls, Olli represents a modern trend toward gender-neutral naming. The name's brevity and friendly sound with its double 'l' creates a playful, approachable quality. While uncommon for either gender outside Nordic countries, Olli has maintained steady usage in Finland for boys. For girls, it remains extremely rare globally. The name's simplicity and distinctive Scandinavian character may appeal to parents seeking minimalist names with international flair or those with Finnish heritage looking to honor their cultural roots.

  18. Wolf
    • Origin:

      Animal name or diminutive of Wolfgang
    • Meaning:

      "traveling Wolf"
    • Description:

      Notable Wolfs like Blitzer, Mankowitz, and Kahn give this name a masculine bent, but nature names are inherently unisex, so we see no reason why Wolf can't be used on a baby girl.

      Historically Wolf has been more common among German (where it's pronounced Vulf) and Jewish families, occasionally as a nickname for Wolfgang.

      The nickname Wolfie softens and feminizes Wolf, while Wolfe turns it into a surname.
