Unusual girls/unisex names beggining with A

[deethra]

Unusual girls or unisex names begginging with A??

We love (and have settled on) the name Aubrey if baby is a boy, and although I know Aubrey is a unisex name, I'm not as keen on it if she's a girl.

Thoughts on Addison?

Suggestions please ❤

Alex

Re: Addison - I'm not personally a fan of 'surname' type names and find something jarring about girls' names that end with 'son'

Alba/Albie
Arden
Ariel

Araminta (nn Minty)
Arietty (from The Borrowers)
Adele

Addison just makes me think of the taxi company.

I love Alex for a girl.

Ada?
Ava?
Astrid?
Ashleigh?

Oops 😬 you said unisex!

Alana
Andrina
Alexis

Alba

Arwen
Aspen
Adair

I think there are very, very few truly unisex names. Alex is one of them.

I suppose you could get away with Arran for either sex.

Girls' name suggestions:
Adriana
Ariadne
Adelaide
Adelheid (the full name of Heidi from the famous book)
Alanna
Aster
Antonia
Aminatta
Anneliese

Adele is very nice.

Not at all keen on Addison, especially not for a girl.

Aurora
Alaine
Asta
Aisling
Amarachi
Ariadne
Ariella
Aurelia

Adalina
Adelaide
Aira
Andromeda

Congratulations!

So many beautiful suggestions so far.
Thank you!!! ❤
Please keep them coming.

dotdotdotdash - I'm not opposed to purely female names. 😁 Those are beautiful suggestions. I'm just open to unisex suggestions also. (I have a daughter already who has a typically male/unisex name. Although I think it sounds very feminine 😊)

Adrienne
Arabella

Addison makes me think of Addisons Disease/crisis

I’m afraid I can only think of Addison’s disease. Some acquaintances have just named their baby girl Andi.

Ainsley/Aynsley

Avery
Alexis

Ainsley or Ashley if you want gender non specific

Love Adrienne, not so kenn on Adrian though.

OK.. so Addison has now definitely been ruled out.

I kept going back to it for some reason, but it didn't give me the 'that's the one' feeling and I couldn't work out why.

Plus - I can finally clear it from my mind and move on!
Negative - I now have zero possible contenders for a girls name. 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

Some A names that I like: Anya, Annika, Aster/Asta, Alice, Athena, Audra, Alba

A few unisex options: Aspen, Afton, Arden

Not keen on Addison I’m afraid.

Adeline
Artemis
Ariadne
Adrian
Alpha
Adeyna

Annis
Ariane
Amber
Avice
Alexis

Anouk
Unusual and very cool - not unisex, but definitely not girly

Great choice with Aubrey if it’s a boy - I have one!

Love Aubrey! (for a boy only)
