      Variation of America, place name

      The name America is given to around 100 baby girls each year, mostly within the Hispanic and Latin American communities. The national charts do not record diacritical marks like accents, but at least some of those baby girls spell their names with one. Model América González is among them.

      German, Finnish, Estonian, Slovene, Croatian, Serbian
    • Meaning:

      "from Latin family name"

      Slavic, meaning unknown
    • Description:

      One supermodel name--that of the Lithuanian Egle Tvirbutaite--which is far from as beautiful to American ears as she is.
  10. Hutton

      English, Scottish surname
    • Meaning:

      "ridge enclosure"
    • Description:

      Hunter is gaining favor among girls, as is Sutton. For those in search of something less common, surname-style Hutton might just be the one. Nine girls were given the name in a recent year, compared to 52 boys.

      French feminine form of Frederic
    • Meaning:

      "peace ruler"
    • Description:

      Frederique, the soigne name of Dutch-born model Frederique Van der Wal, is a lot more sophisticated than the dated MONIQUE. Still, as feminine forms of the Fred names go, we prefer the Italian Federica or the distant Spanish cousin Fernanda.

      "fragrant"
    • Description:

      Dutch

      Dutch model Iekeliene Stange is a famous bearer of this one-of-a-kind name. Its meaning is unknown, but it may be a combo name formed from Ieke + the common suffix -liene.
