Tanwen
Welsh
"holy fire"
Tanwen is a far more singular and colorful alternative to Bronwen.

Indian
"feminine star"
Tarabai is an Indian name with a lot of feminist clout. Tarabai Bhosale was a 17th century Maratha queen who was a skilled military leader in her own right and successfully resisted the Mughal empire…
Tarana
Hindi
"music, song"
Both graceful and melodious.
Tavi
Feminine short form of David or short form of Octavia
Tavi has been catapulted into the spotlight by teenage fashion blogger Tavi Gevinson. This cute name, previously not on anyone's scope, could be a way to honor an ancestral David or a short form of…
Tavora
Hebrew, feminine variation of Tavor
"break, fracture"
Tavora is an attractive option, based on the name of a mountain in northern Israel. But the meaning of Tavora and brother name Tavor is less than optimal.
Terencia
Roman clan name, feminine variation of Terence
Let's leave this one packed away in the attic.
Thaddea
Feminine variation of Thaddeus, Aramaic
"gift of God"
Although Thaddeus has long been used in this country, Thaddea is almost unknown and, with its air of mystery, could make a distinctive choice. Thaddea might be a unique substitute for the…
Thaddeus
Aramaic, meaning unclear, possibly from Theodore
"gift of God"
Very rarely used for girls, but New York socialite Kelly Bensimon and photographer Gilles Bensimon gave it to their youngest daughter in 2000.
Theodota
Feminine variation of Theodotus, Latin from Greek
"given to god"
With Theodora showing signs of revival, this rare saints' name could be an appealing alternative.

One of those feminizations that came over shortly after the Mayflower but has been lost at sea ever since.
Thomasin
English, feminine variation of Thomas, Aramaic
"twin"
Pre-Thomasina female form of Thomas, now seen as more literary and upscale British. In Thomas Hardy's novel The Return of the Native, a leading character is Thomasin Yeobright.
Thomasina

Tiara
Latin
"crown, jeweled headdress"
The perfect name-accessory for a little princess, though its popularity is waning.
Timea
Hungarian feminine variation of Timaeus or invented name
"honor; good spirits, cheerful"
Familiar in Hungary, Romania, Serbia, Czechia, and Slovakia, but rare elsewhere, Timea is a name with several possible origins. Some suggest is was a literary invention, created by the writer Mór…
Timothea
Greek
"honoring god"
Previously Timothy's dusty and outdated sister, now actually feels fresher than its brother name. With Thea names right on trend at the moment, this could be a surprising and even more unusual…
Titania
Greek
"giant, great one"
This name of the queen of the fairies in A Midsummer Night's Dream has a delicate, lacy charm similar to Tatiana's, but that first syllable could cause embarrassing problems.
Toinette
French, diminutive of Antoinette
"priceless one"
Probably too close for comfort to "toilette." Antonia conveys the same idea with a more mellifluous sound.
Toni
English diminutive of Antonia, Latin
"from Antium"
In the 1940s, Toni began to surpass its progenitor, Antonia, but it peaked in 1960 and has since dropped back below the US Top 1000. American author Toni Morrison is an eminent namesake. She was…
