    • Della

      • Origin:

        Diminutive of Adela, Adele or Adelaide

      • Meaning:

        "noble"

      • Description:

        Fresh, bright, and sunny, Della could be an alternative to Ella, Delilah, or Adeline. Familiar but not yet overused, it combines the elements of contemporary favorites with vintage charm.
    • Elowen

      • Origin:

        Cornish

      • Meaning:

        "elm"

      • Description:

        A beautiful modern Cornish nature name that is rapidly picking up steam in the States: even spawning variant spellings like Elowyn and Elowynn. In its native region, it wasn't widely used as a name before the twentieth century, when the Cornish language was revived. A (currently) unique member of the fashionble El- family of names, it has a pleasant, evocative sound.
    • Kerra

      • Description:

        Kerra is a modern feminine name with multiple possible origins. It may be a variant of Kiera or Ciara, which derive from the Irish 'Ciar' meaning 'dark' or 'black.' Alternatively, it could be related to the place name Kerry in Ireland, or represent a creative spelling of Cara, meaning 'beloved' in Latin. The name has a contemporary feel with its strong 'K' beginning and flowing 'r' sounds. While never reaching mainstream popularity, Kerra began appearing on birth certificates more frequently in the 1970s and 1980s, aligning with the trend toward distinctive names with traditional roots but modern spellings. The name conveys strength and femininity simultaneously, appealing to parents seeking something recognizable yet uncommon with a melodic quality and cross-cultural appeal.

        Morwenna is an ancient Cornish name now being revived in Wales, deriving from a Celtic word meaning "maiden", although the Mor- syllable means that it's often associated with the sea. It's been heard in the British series Doc Martin and Poldark. Morwenna Banks is a British actress.
