Zoya nail polishes part 3!

  1. Tawny

    • Origin:

      English word name

    • Meaning:

      "golden brown"

    • Description:

      Y-ending color adjectives like Tawny and Rusty are nowhere near as stylish as the more sophisticated Lilacs and Violets.
  2. Tobey

    • Description:

      Tobey as a feminine name represents a modern gender-crossing trend, as it has historically been more common as a masculine name. Traditionally, Tobey is a diminutive or variant spelling of Toby, which itself derives from Tobias, a name of Hebrew origin meaning 'God is good.' When used for girls, Tobey exemplifies the growing trend of adopting traditionally male names for females. The 'ey' ending gives it a slightly softer feel than the 'y' ending. While uncommon for girls, the name carries a friendly, approachable quality with its short, simple sound. Parents might choose Tobey for a daughter seeking something unconventional with a touch of tomboyish charm and historical depth.

  3. Tamsen
    • Tru
      • Trutdith
        • Whitney

          • Origin:

            English surname

          • Meaning:

            "white island"

          • Description:

            Yesterday's sensation that rose with the popularity of Whitney Houston. Whitney may have lost some of its style value, but it still sounds like one of the quintessential English names for girls. Today, you might want to shorten it to cool nickname Whit.
        • Winnie

          • Origin:

            English diminutive of Winifred

          • Meaning:

            "holy peacemaking, gentle friend"

          • Description:

            This pet form of such names as Winifred and Edwina and Gwendolyn has loads of vintage charm, a la Millie and Maisie, with a decidedly winning vibe. And it just got celebrity cred as the baby daughter of Jimmy Fallon.
        • Yvonne

          • Origin:

            French

          • Meaning:

            "yew wood"

          • Description:

            Peaking in the 1950s, Yvonne has now dropped out of the Top 1000 in 2003 and doesn't look set to return soon, although its rare Y initial might endear it to some. Yvaine, from Neil Gaiman's Stardust, has more modern appeal.
        • Zooey

          • Origin:

            Literary name or variation of Zoe, Greek

          • Meaning:

            "life"

          • Description:

            Readers who remember J. D. Salinger's Franny and Zooey have probably forgotten that the character was male (nee Zachary). Nowadays the somewhat loopy spin on Zoe is associated with actress Zooey Deschanel.
