- Réaltín

IrishMeaning:
"little star"Description:
Also appearing in the charts as Realtin, Reailtin, Réaltan, and Réiltín, this distinctive Irish name combines the word réalta with a diminutive suffix, giving it the sparkly meaning of "little star".

LithuanianMeaning:
"haunted by desire; one expected to appear"Description:
A rare and intriguing Lithuanian name combining noras meaning "wish, desire, want" and vaidentis meaning "to haunt, to appear, to see".

"new"Description:
Bright and intriguing, Neonilla is an ancient name with the cool meaning "new". Derived from the Greek "neos", it was borne by an Orthodox saint, persecuted and martyred in the third century.

- Wolfstan

Modern form of Wulfstan, EnglishMeaning:
"wolf stone"Description:
An ancient name with a modern twist, Wolfstan comes from the Anglo-Saxon name Wulfstan. It maintains the power of its older form while feeling looking and feeling familiar and cool.

- Lietta
Origin:
Italian diminutive of Lia or short form of GiuliettaMeaning:
"weary; sky-father, youthful"Description:
Light and bright, Lietta may be considered an elaborate Italian diminutive of Lia, which may in turn be variation of the Biblical Leah, or a short form of Rosalia and Giulia.

- Hawksley
Origin:
EnglishMeaning:
"hawk's meadow"Description:
