On this day I promise I'll use these in one of my stories. Wacky, wonderful, my daily faves.
  1. Adalin

    • Description:

      Adalin is a feminine name with Germanic roots, related to the noble name Adelaide, meaning "noble" or "nobility." It combines the classic element "adal" (noble) with a softer, more contemporary ending. Though not historically common, Adalin has seen increased interest in recent years as parents seek vintage-inspired names with a modern twist. The name has a delicate, graceful quality while maintaining substance and historical connection. Adalin offers the appeal of more popular names like Adeline or Madeline while remaining distinctive. It provides a balance between traditional elegance and modern style, making it attractive to parents seeking something recognizable yet uncommon.

  2. Aphrodite

    • Origin:

      Greek mythology name

    • Meaning:

      "foam or born from the sea"

    • Description:

      The name of the Greek goddess of love has rarely descended to mortal use, though the Roman equivalent Venus, thanks to tennis star Williams, now seems completely possible. But with the new fashion for goddess names, we may see more little Aphrodites in the playground with Jupiter and Juno. Nineteen baby girls received the name in the US last year.
  3. Aura

    • Origin:

      Greek

    • Meaning:

      "soft breeze"

    • Description:

      Aura is a New Age-y word turned name turned contemporary slang for karm. In Greek and Roman mythology, Aura was the Titan of the breeze and the fresh, cool air of early morning. But at odds with her peaceful, well, aura, the mythological Aura is a tragic figure, ultimately transformed into a fountain by Zeus.
  4. Bijou Brise
    • Calixta

      • Origin:

        Greek

      • Meaning:

        "most beautiful"

      • Description:

        Calista Flockhart may have made her variation of this beautiful Greek name familiar to modern Americans, but the even-edgier x version was the name of an earlier feminist heroine: a character in Kate Chopin's The Storm.
    • Capulette
      • Charmed
        • Desiree

          • Origin:

            French

          • Meaning:

            "desired, wished"

          • Description:

            One of the original French names chosen by midcentury parents for their sophistication and je ne sais quoi, Desiree has since become completely assimilated in the US. It ranked in the Top 1000 from 1954-2017, but has since dropped back out.
        • Destinee

          • Origin:

            Spelling variation of Destiny

          • Description:

            Again, the trendy -ee ending.
        • Divine

          • Origin:

            Word name

          • Description:

            Divine seems more proper a name with the rise of Heaven and its turned-around twin Nevaeh. Though superlative names like Divine -- Unique, say, or Precious -- sometimes seems as if they're trying to hard and protesting too much.
        • Darling Willa
          • Fancy

            • Origin:

              Diminutive of Frances

            • Meaning:

              "free man"

            • Description:

              Old fashioned nickname that some girls just might be able to pull off. You'd just have to be sure your little Fancy was one of them.
          • Fable Prince
            • Guinevere Golde
              • Hannalora
                • Hawthorne
                  • Huckleberrie
                    • Indi Roze
                      • Jadeline
                        • Kennedie

                          • Description:

                            Kennedie represents a feminine, modernized spelling variation of Kennedy, which originated as an Irish surname meaning "helmeted head" or "armored head." This particular spelling with an -ie ending gives the traditionally unisex name a slightly more feminine touch while maintaining its strong sound. Kennedy first gained notable popularity as a first name following President John F. Kennedy's administration in the 1960s, but saw a significant rise for girls in the 1990s-2000s. The Kennedie spelling variation emerged as parents sought ways to personalize the increasingly popular name. This spelling maintains the name's associations with strength and American political legacy while creating visual distinction. The -ie ending follows a pattern seen in other feminized spellings like Maddie or Callie. Kennedie offers the nickname options Kenny or Kenn while standing as a full name with both strength and contemporary style.
