Choose an original girl's name

If you want to stand out from the crowd by giving your little girl a truly original name, here's some inspiration.

  • More and more parents are looking for a name that is off the beaten path for their baby: it's a way for them to make their baby truly unique.
  • Foreign names offer interesting possibilities: Oriental (Sabbah, Naelle), Anglo-Saxon (Loreen, Elly), or Slavic (Inna, Anastasia).
  • You can also revisit some of the classics, by adding a letter or changing the spelling: Cleander, after Leander, or Appolina.
  • There are many websites that list original name ideas for your newborn.

Originally my daughter name was going to be tahani ( I got it from this show I was watching and fell in love with the name) but I let people get into my head and decided to change it. So now her name is seoni which I think is very close to the original name I picked out & I love it just as much 💕

Ok yall so this is about my mom... ...she made a name suggestion for baby girl and I was willing to agree to it; and it is a pretty name and it's a sweet sentiment that my mom picked out the name. However, I want to pronounce and spell the name how I choose while still honoring the original name my mom chose. . .and my mom isn't having it. My mom insists on pronouncing it the original, German version, saying the Spanish pronunciation that I like is "too hard", "sounds gangster", or is "ugly". 😒 Why does everything have to be her way.......this is all coming from a lady who, when I told her I was pregnant, originally said to give up my baby for adoption because I couldn't "provide a good life for a child." Uhhhhggggg

Just do it how you want. I included my mom in naming my second daughter, but I changed the spelling and pronunciation of it so it's still unique while still honoring my mom. I named my daughter Zarah which is pronounced like Sarah but with a Z in place of the S.
