7 Letter Girl Names

Cosette is best known as the heroine of Les Miserables. In the Victor Hugo novel, Cosette was the nickname given to the girl named Euphrasie by her mother. Although Hugo invented the name, some etymologists believe it's a spin on Colette, originally a female short form of Nicolas.


 Despite the popularity of Les Mis the musical, the name was given to only 138 girls in 2015 -- though it's worth noting that this is almost double the number from just a few years ago. Cosette would make for a sweet and quirky French choice.

Jailani is a feminine name with roots in Arabic and Malay cultures. In Arabic, it's connected to the word meaning 'great' or 'mighty,' and can also be associated with Jilan (Gilan), a province in Iran. The name is sometimes related to Abdul Qadir Jilani, a respected Islamic scholar and saint. As a feminine name, Jailani has a melodic quality with its flowing syllables. While not widely used in Western countries, it has presence in Muslim communities worldwide. The name carries connotations of strength, dignity, and cultural heritage. Jailani offers parents seeking a name with Islamic roots a beautiful option that combines cultural significance with a distinctive sound.

Also appearing as Jaliyah and Jaleah, Jalayah is mostly likely to be another variation of the popular Aliyah, which has both Hebrew and Arabic origins. In this case, the sounds of Amaya and Alaya might also have been thrown into the mix. 
 
From it's Hebrew origin, the name Aliyah means "ascent" while the Ja- beginning often connotes God, so the meaning might be "God's ascent." As an Arabic name, Aliyah means "lofty" or "exalted" while Ja- is a popular prefix used in the African American community, so Jaliyah might be a twist on a more popular choice, or a way to honor an Aliyah.
 
Rarely used before the 2000s, Jalayah was given to 145 girls in 2023. While the Jaliyah form is in the Top 1000 and used around three times more often, Jalayah outranks Jaleah and Jaliya.

Astraea —also found as Astraia — is the Greek goddess of justice and innocence who left earth to become the constellation Virgo after she grew unhappy with the state of humanity. She was prophesised to return and begin a new Golden Age, meaning she is associated with renewal — and with Queen Elizabeth I of England thanks to Renaissance writers associating her with the goddess. 
 
 A more unusual choice among the many star-related names currently attracting attention -- from Astra to Esther to Estelle and Stella. Astraea was the daughter of Astraeus, the god of the dusk, and Eos, the goddess of the dawn, and her association with the constellation could make her an appealing choice for a Virgo baby.
 
Given to 91 girls in the US in 2024, it is 10 times more popular than it was a decade ago.

Astraea

While its exact linguistic origins are uncertain, Dailany has a multicultural appeal that resonates with various naming traditions.

Dayanna is a feminine name with multiple possible origins. It may be a variation of Diana, the Roman goddess of the moon and hunting, or a combination of 'day' with the popular name ending '-anna.' In some Hispanic communities, it's used as a variation of Diana with a unique spelling. The name gained popularity in the United States during the 1990s and early 2000s, particularly among Latin American families. Dayanna carries a bright, positive connotation with its connection to 'day' suggesting light and optimism. Its melodic quality and recognizable but uncommon status make it appealing to parents seeking a name that's distinctive yet accessible.

Belinda, cousin of Linda and Melinda, enjoyed a brief return to the Top 1000 from 2005 through 2013, only to fall off again in 2014. A name that some may consider a modern spin on the midcentury popularity queen Linda is in fact a classic with deep and fascinating roots. In Babylonian mythology Belinda was the goddess of heaven and earth, and the name later was used for the heroine of Alexander Pope's satirical poem The Rape of the Lock.
 One of Belinda's meanings is 'beautiful snake' (coined at a time when snakes were a sacred symbol of wisdom and immortality) and it still does seem to have a certain lingering serpentine charm.
 Belinda entered the US popularity lists in 1940, and went on to reach Number 142 in 1961. Both Maria Edgeworth and Anne Rice wrote eponymous novels called Belinda.
 Belinda Carlisle was the lead vocalist in "The Go-Go's."

Emmarie made a brief appearance in the US Top 1000 back in 2018 when it was given to 265 girls.

Emmarie

Jaisley is a modern feminine name that has emerged in recent years, following the trend of blending popular name elements to create something unique. It likely combines the popular 'Jai-' prefix (seen in names like Jaidyn and Jaiden) with the fashionable '-ley' or '-leigh' suffix that appears in many contemporary names like Paisley and Kinsley. The name has a melodic quality and contemporary feel that appeals to parents seeking something distinctive yet accessible. While still relatively rare, Jaisley has been gradually increasing in usage in the United States since the 2010s, particularly among parents attracted to names that sound fresh and original while maintaining an easy pronunciation and feminine quality.

Jaisley

Jermani is a feminine name that appears to be a contemporary creation, possibly derived from or related to names like Jermaine (a French surname meaning 'brother' or 'from Germany') or Jeremy (from the Hebrew name Yirmeyahu). The feminine ending '-i' follows a pattern seen in other modern name adaptations. Usage records for Jermani are limited, suggesting it emerged relatively recently, likely in the late 20th or early 21st century. The name remains uncommon in official naming records but may have increased in usage in recent decades. Without extensive historical documentation, it's difficult to trace its precise origins, though it follows phonetic patterns common in contemporary American naming practices that adapt traditional names with creative spellings or endings.

Winsley

One of the group of French 'ette'-ending names that emigrated to this country in the last century, though never as popular as some others, such as Claudette and Paulette--it did have a little six-year flurry here between 1967 and 1973. Josette may be feminine and flirty, but, given the choice, most parents today would prefer Josephine.

Josette
