Looking for a really unusual girls name!

[chicarubia]

I'm 34 weeks pregnant with my second daughter and found my first's name by scrolling through this forum. Hers is very unusual but has a meaning and is not too much of a mouthful. We're looking for similar with this one. By very unusual I mean a name that's never shown up on the baby name chart which records any name that has been used more than 3 times in a year. It's a tall order I know!

We have Australian and Italian roots and surname ends in -ia so that rules out most -a or -ia ending names for us.
Nice nicknames are also a must.

As an example of what I like my all time fave name is Camira. It's Australian Aboriginal but unfortunately is the name of a shit Australian car so has been completely vetoed by OH.
Would love some help!

Ethne

It’s actually my sisters name. And to my point about adding A’s in Oz- her nickname is Mez!

A’s- meant Z’s!

I know a very sweet 14yo Zélie (pronounced zay-lee). Never seen the Salir spelling before, but why not.
Zayde/Sadie is the yiddish word for grandpa, so if you have Jewish friends or family, I'd probably avoid that one!

I currently work with a Mahaliana, which is certainly unusual. She's Madagascan, I think.

• Zalie spelling

@vitaminC sadie is also stand for Sarah which means princess!

Lilith if you want to be really dark!!

Or how about Kali?!?

Odette is beautiful, I’ve only ever met one and she was a lovely little girl.

Bridie is also known but pretty uncommon.

YY to Bridie but Bridget on her BC
Linnet

Bertha, Donna and Karen.... had zero of them in the UK last year.

They are about to become extinct.

Persis. I've always thought it was lovely although for my own daughter I wanted one she'd never have to spell!

When I say Zalie it sounds like I’m saying Sally with a blocked nose.

Zerafina is nice and you could nn Fifi or Ina.

Irida, a Greek ancient name
Love it, but Did not use it due to the way it can be teased ie “irritating” in EN speaking countries but that was my gut feeling and I could be totally wrong

For unusual names I really like

Anairi
Murren
Lamya

I also know one girl called Storm which I love.

You could have Azalea as her full name, with Zalie for short.

Seren- means little star in welsh, not sure how popular it is in other parts of the world but fairly popular here in wales

I like Queenie

Zeleah- for a z as intial & unusual

Iseult (I pronounce it Is-ult but some people say Eye-zult)

Star in other languages

Zailie is very pretty!

Shoshana
Zaphira/Zafina
Xanthe

Mareike. Beautiful German name.
