- Siobhan
Origin:
Irish GaelicMeaning:
"god is gracious"Description:
Siobhan is the Irish variation of Joan, which is derived from the ancient Anglo-Norman name Jehanne. In this way Siobhan is indirectly related to the name Sinead—the Irish form of Jeannette, which also derived from Jehanne—although Sinead is not a nickname for Siobhan. Siobhan was the name of several early Irish queens and was introduced to the American public by the actress Siobhan McKenna.

French variation of ArielMeaning:
"lion of God"Description:
While not as popular as the Ariel spelling of Little Mermaid fame, this rendition has achieved popularity in its own right.
- Reeve

English occupational nameMeaning:
"bailiff, sheriff, local official"Description:
Chosen by aviators Charles and Anne Lindbergh for their daughter, Reeve could work as a distinctive alternative to Reese. While it is currently more popular for boys, nine girls received the name in a recent year, meaning around 20% of all Reeves born in the US were girls.
