Pretty Indian/ Sanskrit Baby girl names?

[meera454]

Any ideas? Stuck with a list that we don't love, and struggling to find 'the one'...

I love the name Priya

I like it too, but very popular

Veda
Moksha
Arya
Nitya

@Reearry Thanks for the suggestions! Arya stands out to me the most from the list

Lavanya?

Darshana
Riya
Amala

Chandra (I love this name)
Indira
Dharma
Ira (Ear-ra)
Uma
Nahla
Lina

Sarita it means waterfall, I believe

Shireen?

Indian names I considered:

Niva
Nila
Asha

We considered Arya too but both Aria and Arya are getting very common in the UK (Arya is, I believe, a character on Game of Thrones)

Leela
Nisha
Shalini

I love Leela

Anjali

Anjali is nice too

Malini
Lata
Minakxi (I like the x!)
Vinita
Isha
Sonal

Tiya
Shriya

I love names like Anjali, Nisha and Priya but obviously they're quite common! How about:

Anisha
Akriti
Jyoti
Namrata
Lachana

Arya is lovely. I assume OP is familiar with the Game of thrones connection. She is cool character but you will have people thinking that is why you chose it. Prob not an issue but thought I would mention in case .

Reena
Shreeya
Avneet
Maya
Rani
Payal

Jaya
Jhanvi

@meera454 Arya is a lovely name and very popular/ trendy at the moment. If you are not bothered about it being too common a name, it's a good one to go with

Thank you for all the ideas, so helpful! Aria/ Arya is nice, the connection to GOT doesn't bother me much. How would you spell it? I prefer the Aria spelling, what do you think? I heard that Arya is also a man's name in some places?
Anika and Anya are also options as well as Lavanya. Not sure which of these seems more elegant though..
Shortlist so far:
Alisha
Anya
Anika
Aria
Ahana
Avina
Avira
Lavanya

Which one sounds the most elegant? What sort of person comes to mind when you hear these names?

I like anya from that list, OP. Anika/Aria would be my next choices. Not keen on any of the others tbh.

@AlexaShutUp Thanks that's really helpful! :)
