Esau
Hebrew
"hairy"
A once neglected Biblical name, not seen in the US popularity charts since 1902, Esau has been seeing renewed interest in recent years. Appealing perhaps to those looking for alternatives to Elias,…
Edric
English
"wealthy ruler"
Formerly in style limbo, Edric has recently started to see more use by parents. It could be because it sounds medieval yet accessible - which George R. R. Martin took advantage of for several…
Emmalee
English variation of Emily or combination of Emma + Lee
"rival; universal + meadow"
Is it a smoosh of Emma and Lee or a spelling variation of Emily? With Em- names so popular, it's no surprise to see Emmalee in use, but there are other Em- and -lee names that might feel less…
Enola
English literary name and place name, Cherokee
"alone; black fox"
Enola has a lot of potential as a name: it includes the stylish 'nola' sound; it follows a similar letter pattern to the likes of Elora, Elara, and Elodie; it has a hint of Nevaeh about it, given…
Emre
Turkish
"friend"
This Turkish name meaning "friend" should be very useable outside Turkey, given that it is pronounced just as it is spelled. Famous men named Emre include Emre Can, a chess grandmaster, and Emre…
Ellarose
Compound name made up of Ella and Rose
"fairy rose"
A combination name with a hint of fairy-tale magic to it, without being too fantastical. Given to 3 girls in the UK in 2022 and more than 40 in the US, it falls just slightly behind its sister name,…
Elva
Feminine form of Alf or anglicized form of Ailbhe, Danish, Icelandic, Irish
"elf; bright, light, white"
Elva is a multicultural choice, being both an anglicization of the Irish Ailbhe and an feminine form of the name Alf, meaning "elf". Popular in the US at the beginning of the 20th century, it…
Evelia
Evelia is a feminine name with Latin and Spanish origins. It derives from the Latin name Evelius, which may be related to 'aevum' meaning 'age' or 'eternity.' The name is most prevalent in Hispanic…
Eben
Hebrew, diminutive of Ebenezer
"stone of help"
Though most parents would shy away from Ebenezer, short form Eben is affable and creative and perfectly able to stand alone; nothing Scroogish about it. This also makes a fresh new spin on the very…
Espen
Scandinavian
"god bear"
Strong and unusual Scandinavian name, but with two possible pitfalls: people might mis-hear it as Aspen, or associate it with sports network ESPN. Variants include Esper and Esben.
Eshaal
Arabic
"kindled, enlivened"
A bright and lively name of Arabic origin, also spelled as Eshal. Currently in the England and Wales Top 1000, it is popular among Muslim families.
Esti
Hebrew diminutive of Esther, Persian, or Basque
"star; sweet honey"
Esti is most commonly a short form of Esther and Estelle, both making the big move from old lady name to cool young name. It's also a popular short form of the Basque names Estitxu and Estibalitz, or…
Egan
Variation of Aidan, Irish
"little fire"
Egan's likeness to the word eager gives this Irish surname a ready-to-please, effervescent energy, and it would make an appropriate substitute for the overused Aidan. This popular Irish surname…
Edris
Welsh; Arabic
"lord; studious"
This variation of Idris brings Edward into the mix.
Ellington
English place-name and surname
"Ellis's town"
Ellington is a swinging musical name, evoking the jazzy and elegant persona of the Duke (born Edward Kennedy Ellington). While that reference may seem to make Ellington a male name, it is also…
Ethel
English
"noble maiden"
Ethel is a name we once declared as 'So Far Out They'll Probably Always Be Out,' but with the return of other names on that list and with its new starbaby cred via Lily Allen, its soft sound and…
Elah
Spelling variation of Ella, English, Hebrew
"all, completely, fairy maiden; terebinth tree"
Ella may well be used as an unusual spelling variation of the familiar Ella, though it is also a Biblical name. Derived from the Hebrew word for the terebinth tree (and occasionally equated with the…
Elroi
Variation of Leroy, Hebrew
"the king: God is my shepherd/sight"
Elroi can be considered a variation of Leroy, which uses the Spanish "El" instead of the French "Le", and the Roi spelling over the Roy option, either to make the pronunciation clearer, to mirror…
Enrico
Italian variation of Henry
One of several Latin names starting with E that would work and play well with others in any family.
Enid
Welsh
"life, spirit"
This Celtic goddess and Arthurian name may sound terminally old-ladyish to many ears--but so did names like Ella and Etta not so long ago. So Enid is yet another forgotten four-letter E-possibility:…
