The Best Badass Princess Names

The Best Badass Princess Names

Badass princess names fit an image that not only appeals to contemporary little girls but to parents.

Like hipster cowboy names, badass princess names are appealing not so much because of their sound or their style but because of the complex image they convey. These are girl names that are both decidedly feminine and rooted in tradition, but are not at all conventional or conservative. They’re creative and edgy, but not invented or unorthodox like Blue or Bellamy.

Rather, these are names that could be — that in many case are — used for royalty, yet they’re a lot, well, badder than names like Elizabeth and Victoria.

The badass princess names are classy and sassy, cosmopolitan yet earthy, chic but never trying too hard.  It’s an image that many an urbane parent can embrace for her daughter, and that a little girl can have fun living up to, in Halloween costume and beyond.
