Unusual Girls Names

[xxmrsbxx]

What’s the most unusual name you’ve heard for a girl? I have 2 boys with unusual names and really struggling for a name for our little girl.

Whether they're unusual is an other question (really depends on where you live). But I don't see them regularly recommended on mumsnet:

Akilina
Aviva
Adina
Bettina
Zipporah
Severina
Andreana
Augustine
Liora
Vered

Ottilie
Ariadne (ar-re-ad-ne)
Halcyon (hal-see-on)
Octavia
Arrietty
Luciana (Lucy-arr-na)

Reya
Delphine
Romy
Marlowe
Juno
Nico
Gaia
Iona
Calla

[quote florascotia2]This might be of interest, OP. All sorts of unusual names as you scroll down, from medieval and modern-in-Scotland to random 'name musings:
