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!

Ursula

Merisna

Camdyn

Eirene
Jhaleh (the one I know pronounces it like the word 'jolie' in French as if with an American accent).
Lyra - name of a constellation

Aleydis - she was a Belgian saint. Think it is a Flemish version of Alice.

Berengere
Oriana
Kerenhappuch
Tirzah
Keilah
Victorine
Calixa
Zizanie

What about Danika? It means morning star in danish.

Or Jarrah, May after May Gibbs, Acacia, Fern, Coral?

I quite like Clancy for a girl though I think most people use it as a boys name.

I knew a horse called Zelnova - nn Zee.

Fits the star/Z requirement but pos too unusual for a child.

Bathsheba. If I had the balls to do it... I always loved it after reading Far From the Madding Crowd. Of course Bathsheba sounds much better if you have a surname as lovely as Everdene like in the book. It's biblical in origin of course.

I am not sure of the spellings of these, but I have know people called them and always thought they were lovely names. Lorena(was Swiss) or Keranina.

I bet there aren’t many Mildred’s born recently.

If you like z names what about Zennor? It's a lovely little place in Cornwall and as a child I met one girl named after there. Never met any others.

Also used to have a neighbour ( older lady) called Zennet and everyone called her zen.

Gobnait.
My least favourite name in the world.
An Irish saint's name

Don't know if anyone has suggested this but I search by meaning on www.babynamespedia.com Tends to throw up some names that are really unusual (here at least). You can also search by ending, letters in the name etc

I once worked with a woman called Zillah, always thought it was a lovely unusual name

ANNAHI - name of a native South american princess and probably a type of tree
ARACI - morning or dawn
IRASEMA (zema not c-ma) - honey mouth
ISADORA - gift
IUNA - night river or black river
JACIRA - honey moon
JUSARA - moon
KAUANE (la-wan- ee) - hawk
LAIS or LAÍS (lie - ees) - lioness
LUNA - moonlight
MOARA

POTIRA - flower
TAINARA - illuminated
TUI - moonlight on water
YARA - water

I really like Nova - though unfortunately that is the name of another shit car according to OH!
Jarrah is cool though we know a little aussie boy called that. Holly, I have to say I'm not crazy about Gobnait, makes me think of Gobshite!
Linoleum, some very interesting ones there!
We quite like Lyrian which is similar to Lyra but a bit more unusual. Does anyone have an opinion on that? There're a few in Oz but never heard of any here.
Elbi I'll have a look at that website now!
Annabel thank you- I'll make sure I come back and post once she's born. Our 2 year old loves the name Zalie and refuses to accept she could be called anything else so we are definitely moving towards it!
Thanks again for all the input!

Kiri? I believe it's a Maori name.

Theducks, that makes sense because of Kiri de Kanawa. I quite like Kiri

I have to say I'm not crazy about Gobnait, makes me think of Gobshite!
You and just about everyone else who hears the name
Also gobs, and nits.

How about Xochitl? Pronounced So-chee though some sound the TL sound at the end. It is a Nahuatl/Mexican name meaning flower.

I like Lyrian.

If you like Nova I always quite liked Auva, which is a constellation. Or Neoma which I think is new moon in Greek.

Carina
Nerissa
Bronte
Dolce

(the last 2 are 2 Australian sisters I know of)

On one of the links to star names in a previous post the name Yildiz came up. I met someone named Yildiz years ago and thought it was a beautiful name, didn't realise it means Star - this will be going on my list if a DD2 ever happens!

I know of a Carmiya. Only ever heard of it once and I think its just a beautiful name.
