- Cynthia
Origin:
GreekMeaning:
"moon goddess; woman from Kynthos"Description:
Sleek and serious, yet bright and energetic at the same time, Cynthia appears in classic mythology as an epithet for Artemis or Diana. While it is now a more neglected choice, it was once hugely popular in the middle of the 20th-century, peaking at #7 in the US, and in the Top 20 by diminutive Cindy.
- Jennifer
Origin:
Cornish variation of Guinevere, WelshMeaning:
"white shadow, white wave"Description:
Jennifer is the Cornish variation of Guinevere, which ultimately derived from the Welsh name Gwenhwyfar. As such, it is connected to the queen of Arthurian legend, and sharees the same meaning of "white shadow", "white wave", or "white phantom".
- Jimmy
Origin:
Diminutive of JamesMeaning:
"supplanter"Description:
Every other little kid's name in 1957 but few Jameses are called Jimmy today; they're more often James or Jamie.
