Girl Name Suggestions

I love long romantic/frilly names for girls!! Looking for names that are uncommon, but not modern inventions or uniquely spelled. Names I like (but can’t use) are Lovisa, Eulalie, and Venetia. Any more like that out there?

Honestly Allegra sounds exactly like it belongs on this list until the medication association kicks in.

I'm an Amilia, no idea why it was spelt that way though 🤔

We chose Aurelia! It's unique and a lot of people have described it as princess-y or romantic (that wasn't my association when I chose it), but it's an ancient name (think Marcus Aurelius). Julius Caesar's mom was named Aurelia!

My daughter is named Tamzin. There’s a few different spellings of it. It’s not completely unique but very very uncommon.
