Featured in baby name books
Amelia
Amelia means “industrious” or “hardworking” and is related to Emily and Amalia, with Amélie as the French form. Amelia has an early-American sound, was very popular in the 1800s, faded in the mid-1900s, and is now back in style.
Ariel
Ariel is a Hebrew name meaning “lion of God” or “lioness of God,” used for boys and girls, with Arielle and Ariella as feminine spellings. In the Bible Ariel is a symbolic name for Jerusalem in Isaiah and the name of a leader sent by Ezra to find Levites.
Bianca
Bianca is Italian for “white,” suggesting purity, with Blanca and Blanche as Spanish and French forms. Bianca is the younger sister of Katherine in Shakespeare’s comedy The Taming of the Shrew.
Carmen
Carmen is Latin and Spanish for “song.” Carmen is also traced to Hebrew, meaning “garden” or “orchard,” as a Spanish form of Carmela.
Claudia
Claudia is the feminine of Claudius and comes from Latin for “lame.” The name stayed popular despite its meaning, thanks largely to the Roman Emperor Claudius.
Diana
Diana comes from Latin and means “divine.” In Roman myth Diana was the goddess of the moon and the hunt, counterpart of the Greek Artemis.
Dora
Dora is a Greek name meaning “gift,” and it is also a short form of Theodora. The biblical city of Dor, or Dora, was a Canaanite coastal town whose king Joshua defeated.
Emma
Emma is an Old German name meaning “whole,” “all-embracing,” or “universal.” Emma came to England with the Normans and has been warmly revived as a romantic, Victorian-feeling name, helped by Jane Austen’s heroine.
Esther
Esther is usually traced to Persian and means “star,” possibly linked to the goddess Ishtar. Esther is also tied to the Hebrew Hadassah, meaning “myrtle,” the queen’s original name.
Gloria
Gloria is Latin for “glory,” evoking a woman of renown and praise. George Bernard Shaw is credited with coining Gloria in an 1898 play; it reached the top twenty in the 1920s and now sits low enough to merit a revival.
Irene
Irene is a Greek name meaning “peace,” after the goddess of peace, with Irena and Irina as popular variants. Irene was borne by a fourth-century saint and a Byzantine empress, and stayed popular until the mid-twentieth century; its variants are now more common.
Iris
Iris is Greek for “rainbow,” and is also a flower name. In Greek myth Iris was the rainbow goddess who carried messages between heaven and earth; the stylized iris is the fleur-de-lis of France.
Jennifer
Jennifer is a Welsh or Cornish version of Guinevere, meaning “white and smooth,” “fair,” or “white wave.” Jennifer was hardly known beyond Cornwall until George Bernard Shaw put it in a play, and by the early 1970s it was the most popular name in the country.
Jessica
Jessica is a Hebrew name meaning “God sees” or “He beholds,” with “wealthy” also offered. Shakespeare gave Jessica to Shylock’s daughter in The Merchant of Venice, possibly drawing on the biblical Jesca or on Jesse.
Judith
Judith is a Hebrew name meaning “woman from Judea” or “Jewish,” with “praised” and “admired” also given. In the apocryphal Book of Judith, a brave widow saves her people from the Assyrians by beheading their commander, Holofernes.
Julia
Julia comes from the Roman clan name Julius and means “young” or “youthful.” Julia is also read as “soft-haired.”
Linda
Linda is Spanish for “pretty” or “pretty one.” Linda topped the charts in the late 1940s and early 1950s, replacing Mary, and now feels dated; Lindy is a livelier nickname.
Luna
Luna is Latin and Italian for “moon.” Luna was the Roman moon goddess.
Maria
Maria is the Latin and Mediterranean form of Mary, meaning “bitter,” or “star of the sea.” Deeply traditional yet modern-sounding, Maria evokes The Sound of Music, West Side Story, and “Ave Maria”; it was also the name of a wife of Muhammad.
Maya
Maya honors the month of May and the Roman goddess Maia; it entered U.S. use in 1970, quickly reached the top one hundred, and also recalls the Mayan civilization. Maya is a Hindu or Sanskrit name meaning “illusion” or “God’s power.”
Octavia
Octavia comes from Latin and means “eighth,” the feminine form of Octavius. In the nineteenth century Octavia was often given to an eighth child; it recalls Augustus Caesar, once called Octavian, whose sister was Octavia.
Patricia
Patricia is the feminine of Patrick, from Latin for “patrician” or “noble.” Used in the church since the sixth century, Patricia surged after a granddaughter of Queen Victoria received it and was big from the 1930s into the 1970s before declining.
Paula
Paula is the feminine of Paul, from Latin for “small,” with relatives like Paulina, Pauline and Paola. Paula was in the top hundred from the 1950s to the early 1970s but has since dropped, while the Italian Paola has climbed.
Rita
Rita began as a short form of Margarita or Margaret, meaning “pearl,” and one source adds an Indian meaning, “brave, strong.” Rita hit its high point in the 1940s alongside Rita Hayworth, Rita Moreno is another famous bearer, and in 2003 it dropped below the top 1,000.
Sandra
Sandra began as a short form of Alexandra (or Alessandra) and means “defender” or “helper of mankind.” A forgotten novel, Sandra Belloni, launched it as a standalone name; it peaked from the 1940s to 1960s, and the French Sandrine may give it new life.
Simone
Simone is the French feminine form of Simon, meaning “God listens” or “one who listens well.” The name caught on in the U.S. around 1960, after Simone Signoret’s Oscar win; Nina Simone and Simone de Beauvoir add musical and feminist associations.
Sophia
Sophia is a Greek name meaning “wisdom,” with forms like Sofia, Sophie, and Sonia. This antique gem has roared back to the top of the charts, helped by stars like Sophia Loren; the Hagia Sophia means “holy wisdom.”
Veronica
Veronica is a Latin name meaning “true image,” with Veronique and Veronika as foreign forms and Ronnie and Vera as nicknames. By legend, Saint Veronica wiped Jesus’s face with her veil as he carried the cross, and the cloth kept the image of his face, though she never appears in the Bible itself.
Victoria
Victoria is a Latin name meaning “victory” or “victorious,” the feminine form of Victor and the name of the Roman goddess of victory. The name has a regal air thanks to Queen Victoria, and it offers many nicknames, including Tori, Vicky, and Ria.
Virginia
Virginia is a Latin name meaning “virgin,” “maiden,” or “pure,” and is also seen as a feminine form of Virgil. The name has a royal air because Queen Elizabeth I, the Virgin Queen, gave her title to the state of Virginia; Ginny, Gigi, and Gina are common nicknames.
