Fragile/Delicate Baby Names

  1. Azami

    • Origin:

      Japanese; Persian

    • Meaning:

      "thistle flower; greatest"

    • Description:

      Azami has a prickly image and feel — reinforced by the thistle's image in Eastern mythology as one of defiance. A name that spans two widely divergent cultures, Azami might make the perfect international choice, at once unusual and easy to comprehend.
  2. Esco

    • Description:

      Esco is a unique masculine name with multiple possible origins. It may be a diminutive of names beginning with 'Es-' such as Esmond or Escobar, or derive from place names like Esco, Spain. Another possibility is its connection to the Italian word 'esca' meaning 'bait' or 'lure.' As a given name, Esco remains quite rare in the United States and most English-speaking countries, giving it a distinctive quality. Some parents might choose it for its brevity and strong ending sound, or for its cultural connections. The name has occasionally appeared in popular culture, which may contribute to small spikes in usage, though it maintains its uncommon status.

  3. Maebell

    • Description:

      Maebell is a charming feminine name with American Southern roots, combining the names Mae (or May) and Bell. It evolved as a variant of Mabel (from the Latin 'amabilis' meaning 'lovable') or as a double name in the Southern tradition. Popular in the early 20th century, Maebell has that sweet, vintage quality that's seeing renewed interest as part of the revival of grandmother names. The name evokes images of rural simplicity and Southern hospitality. Though not currently among top-ranking names, Maebell offers nostalgic appeal while fitting the trend of rediscovering vintage names with a melodic quality and meaningful history.

      Yiddish form of Hebrew Menucha

  5. Brin

    • Origin:

      Welsh

    • Meaning:

      "hill"

    • Description:

      The many variations of Brynn are far more popular for girls than boys in the US, but if you’d like to use it on a son, Brin is the most masculine of all the spelling options.
