Cool meets Born Again meets Brad and Angelina, who made Shiloh an instant star when they chose it for their daughter. While Shiloh has risen from obscurity thanks to its celebrity baby use, it hasn't become a star the way brother names Maddox and Pax have. It entered the Top 1000 in 2007, one year after the birth of Ms. Jolie-Pitt.
 The town of Shiloh is mentioned several times in the Old Testament--it was where Joshua and the Israelites assembled to cast lots for the seven tribes and for many years it was where the Ark of the Covenant resided, becoming a place of pilgrimage. Shiloh is also the site in Tennessee of a major, bloody, Civil War battle.
 Trivia tidbit: Shiloh is the name Angelina Jolie's parents had picked for their first child before her mother miscarried.

Shiloh

This old Persian name was chosen by actress Geena Davis for her daughter.  It's an attractive variation on a name that exists in dozens of forms, from Alissa and Eliza to the French Alizee, but you'll forever be explaining how to spell and pronounce this version.

Alizeh

Autum is a feminine name representing a variant spelling of Autumn, the season between summer and winter. The name evokes images of falling leaves, harvest time, and the warm golden and red hues characteristic of the season. This alternative spelling maintains the seasonal connection while offering a more distinctive presentation. Names associated with seasons became popular in the late 20th century, with Autumn specifically gaining recognition in the 1970s and 1980s. The simplified spelling removes the silent 'n,' creating a more phonetic version. While less common than the traditional spelling, Autum offers the poetic associations of change, transition, and natural beauty that come with the standard form. The name suggests warmth, maturity, and the rich abundance associated with harvest time.

Autum

The name of a sympathetic character in the best-selling novel The Secret Life of Bees, though it feels more stylish these days spelled Rosaline.
