      This perfume name, undoubtedly a takeoff on the French word for pretty, has somehow wafted into the girls' lexicon. Too commercial.
  9. Adaleigh

    • Description:

      Adaleigh is a modern feminine name that blends traditional elements with contemporary styling. It combines the Germanic name element 'adal' meaning 'noble' or 'nobility' with the popular suffix 'leigh,' an alternative spelling of 'lee' meaning 'meadow' or 'clearing.' Emerging primarily in the United States during the early 21st century, Adaleigh follows the trend of elaborating on traditional names with distinctive spellings. It shares sounds with popular names like Adalyn, Adeline, and Ashley, while offering a unique variation. The name has gained modest popularity among parents seeking something familiar yet uncommon. Adaleigh projects a gentle, feminine image with an underlying sense of dignity from its noble etymological roots. The name fits well with other trending 'leigh' ending names like Everleigh and Ryleigh.

  10. Kaylynn

    • Meaning:

      "little Maud"

    • Description:

      This French-style name is, in fact, an American creation with only a handful of documented uses throughout history. Maudette combines the mini-name Maud — a medieval short form of Matilda, meaning "battle-mighty" — with the diminutive French suffix -ette, so together, this name could be poetically interpreted as "small but mighty".
  16. Kayleen

      Kayleen is a feminine name with Irish and American origins, created as a modern variation of Kathleen or a combination of the popular Kay and the suffix -leen. The name carries the meaning 'pure' or 'slim and fair' from its Kathleen roots. Emerging in popularity during the 1970s and 1980s in the United States, Kayleen exemplifies the trend toward creating unique variations of traditional names. The name has a melodic quality with its long 'ay' sound followed by the soft ending. While never reaching top ranking status, Kayleen appeals to parents seeking a name that sounds familiar yet distinctive, offering a more elaborate alternative to Kay while maintaining its friendly, approachable quality.
