Names Ending in A for Girls

The full name of one of the main characters on Netflix's Dear White People, though she usually goes by Coco. Colandrea occasionally pops up as a surname, but as a first name, it feels more like a mashup of Coco and Andrea -- and a not unappealing mashup at that.

Colandrea

The name of a regular (if not central) character on Amazon's Catastrophe vaguely recalls Melanie, Melissa and Sandra.

Mallandra

One of many distinctive names in the show and book series Midnight, Texas by Charlaine Harris -- and one of very few girl's names that start with the letter X.

Xylda

A goddess worshipped in Roman times by Celtic peoples on the British isles, only recently rediscovered by historians. Though little is understood about her -- most of what we know comes from a single archeological finding -- she seems to have been a virgin goddess, analogous to the Greek Athena, Roman Minerva and, distantly, the Virgin Mary. Her name was initially thought to be Senua; both are intriguing, highly unusual possibilities for a little girl today.

Senuna

When archeologists discovered a shrine to a previously unknown goddess in England, they initially believed her name to have been Senua. Further research pointed to Senuna as a more likely name. 

Senua

The common name for the invasive weed scientists call Lespedeza cuneata has a Roman feel that's become sought after among certain parents. But soundalikes Circe and Servilia have much longer histories as first names.

Sericea

Servilia is best known as the name of a Roman patrician woman intimately involved with some of the most famed figures in ancient history: she was Caesar's mistress, Brutus's mother and Cato the Younger's half-sister. Her name derived from the family name Servilius, which stretches back to the earliest days of the Roman Republic.With interest in classical names exploding, Servilia might be worth a serious look, though its closeness to words like "servile" and "villain" could be a turnoff.

Servilia

Sunehra is an Indian name that is largely unknown in English-speaking countries, except maybe via its friendly short form Sunny.

The original Cornish name for the town better known today as Tintagel. With its Arthurian heritage, this makes a good choice for those fond of the legends of Lancelot, Guinevere and King Arthur.

In the language of the Ngurelban people, 'Yera-o' is said to mean "joyful". This Anglicization is reminiscent of other <a href="https://nameberry.com/girls-names">feminine names</a>like Eulalia and could work well for those looking for a less familiar choice.

Euroa

Dianella is the botanical name of a small plant which grows across Australia. It flowers in spring with a star-like purple flower which develops into a blue berry.  Dianella feels wearable as an elaboration of Diana.

Dianella

Famous Indigenous lawyer Lowitja O'Donoghue brought this name into prominence in Australia. She now has a research institute named for her. We think this fresh take on Lois has wide appeal.

Lowitja

Anima is a name that could work in so many languages, blessed as it is with easy spelling and pronunciation. It works equally well in the East and in the West, as its roots can either come from Latin, where it means "soul", or from Sanskrit, where it means "minute, tiny".

In epic poetry, the term aristeia is used to denote the climactic point where the hero/heroine has their finest hour. Aristeia feels at home with other big Greek names like Atalanta, Cassiopeia and Galatea. We think this name has potential for parents who think Poem, Saga and Rhapsody are too obvious.
