      Blending classic with contemporary elements, Alayna is considered a spin on the name Alana, which also draws inspiration from Elaine and Elena. An obscure choice until the 80s, it began to climb the charts after fencer Alayna Snell took part in the 1984 Olympics.

      Greek

    • Meaning:

      "goddess, godly"

      Greek

    • Meaning:

      "seer, prophetess"

    • Description:

      The image of the lovely Lady Sybil, tragic youngest daughter of the Crawley family on Downton Abbey is likely to go a long way towards reviving this almost forgotten name, off the list since 1966 and most popular in the 1920s and '30s.
  10. Aggie

    • Origin:

      English, diminutive of Agatha and Agnes

  12. Dayna

    • Description:

      Dayna is a feminine name with Slavic origins, derived from the name Dana, ultimately connected to the Hebrew name 'Daniel' meaning 'God is my judge.' It gained modest popularity in the United States during the 1970s and 1980s as parents sought fresh alternatives to the more common Diana or Dana. The name carries a modern, sleek quality while maintaining feminine appeal. Dayna is sometimes spelled Daina or Deyna in different cultural contexts. Though never reaching top-tier popularity, Dayna maintained a steady presence in naming records and is appreciated for its simple yet distinctive sound pattern and easy pronunciation across different languages.
  13. Ever

    • Origin:

      English word name

    • Meaning:

      "always, eternally, constantly"

    • Description:

      A simple, unusual word name with an evocative meaning, Ever feels similar enough to Eva, Evelyn, and Everly that it shifts easily into name territory. Actor Robert Carradine was ahead of the trends when he named his now grown-up actress daughter Ever back in the 70s, while more recently, it was used by both Milla Jovovich and Owain Yeoman.
  14. Leland

    • Description:

      Leland is traditionally a masculine name that has crossed over to occasional feminine usage. With Old English origins, it means 'meadow land' or 'fallow ground.' The name combines 'lea' (meadow) with 'land,' creating a nature-inspired moniker with a gentle, pastoral feeling. As a female name, Leland emerged as part of the trend toward gender-neutral naming in the late 20th century. It offers a distinctive alternative to popular 'L' names like Leah or Lily. Though still predominantly used for boys, Leland for girls provides a strong yet feminine option with a connection to the natural world. The name carries a sophisticated, preppy quality with subtle outdoor associations.
  15. Arliss

    • Origin:

      Hebrew

    • Meaning:

      "pledge"

    • Description:

      Arliss is most famous as the name of a few high-profile male characters, though it can just as easily work for a baby girl.

      Invented literary name

    • Description:

      A combination-type name invented by L. Frank Baum for a Princess character who first appears in his book Ozma of Oz.
  17. Finn

    • Origin:

      Irish

    • Meaning:

      "white, fair"

    • Description:

      The most enduringly popular hero of Irish myth was Finn McCool, whose name is one of the coolest ever. When used for the female protagonist of How to Make an American Quilt, Finn established its hipness for girls as well.
  18. Lexa

    • Description:

      Lexa is a feminine name with multiple origin possibilities. Most commonly, it's considered a shortened form of Alexandra, which derives from Greek elements meaning 'defender of mankind.' It also functions as an independent diminutive of Alexis or Alexa. In Slavic languages, particularly Czech and Slovak, Lexa can be a nickname for names containing the Alex- element. The name gained modest recognition following the introduction of the character Commander Lexa in the television series 'The 100' (2014-2016). With its crisp, modern sound combining the popular 'Lex' sound with a feminine ending, Lexa appeals to parents seeking short, strong feminine names that balance contemporary style with classical roots.

  19. Lux

    • Origin:

      Latin

    • Meaning:

      "light"

    • Description:

      This name of a character played by Kirsten Dunst in the movie Virgin Suicides, originally a novel by Jeffrey Eugenides, is gaining attention, also thanks to the heroine Lux, Lady of Luminosity in the League of Legends games. Luz is the Spanish version.
