Earthy girls names

[pittypottyputtypink]

My friend wants a strong earthy girls name inspired either by the sea, forrest, or mountains. She loves the names Bear, Wolfie, Forrest, Rocky, and Caspien for a boy, but the baby is a girl.

For a girl she is considering Sequioa after the trees, or Gaia after Mother Nature, but she says she much prefers her boys names. She wants a name that is unusual and will be the only child with this name in their class so wants to avoid flower names, and more classic earthy names such as Willow, Fern, etc. She knows a baby River. Any ideas?

Aspen
Dawn
Ellery
Avril
Vera
Olia
Marlowe
Lotus

Most of those welsh name pronunciations are not quite right, and some of them are nouns.

I was going to suggest Eartha and Sierra, but Heather, Laurel etc are quite nice.

Tara
Stella
Eartha
Robyn
Morwenna
Seren
Dawn
Sky
Storm
Autumn
Haulwen
Sienna

Paloma is my favourite of this style of name, but of course it isn't unique, how about Tundra or Cascade (French for waterfall) or Phaedra?

Ailsa
Iona
Erica (Latin for Heather)

I am very outdoorsy, and DD’s name is Hope, after the Hope Valley in the Peak District.

I was just going to say Iona too
There are lots of Welsh ones:
Seren (star)
Enfys (rainbow)
Eira (snow)
Heulwen (sunshine)
Grug (heather)

Hadley
Saya
Lark
Estella
Opal
Merielle / Merial
Odessa - not technically earthy but it means long journey

Cavan is a county in Ireland
The Shannon river is the longest river in Ireland.

Cavan people get slagged for being tight with money.
My experience is different having witnessed generosity from Cavan friends and enjoying great hospitality at their wedding.

If she calls her Cuillin she will spend her life correcting people who have heard it as Colin.

Bikerunski- my daughters middle name is Hope after Hope Valley! First name is Hattie.

These are all such lovely names I love the welsh ones and Sierra!

I know a lady called Silven ( not sure of spelling) which apparently means " of the forest" which is rather lovely

But OP, aren't they for your friend? Doesn't matter if you like them does it?

Just looked it up, its Sylvan, like sylvanian families I guess, doh!

Apparently it's a boy name and there's no record of any female sylvans being born ever according to Google though I definitely know one who is about 25. I'm baffled.
