Thea does not mean gift. It means goddess. Definitely, no doubt whatsoever. Theos is the Greek word for god and it comes from that.

Perhaps you are thinking of Theodora? Doro means gift in Greek, so Theodora/ Theodore means gift from God.

Zoe, after a Byzantine empress from the Middle Ages?

Candace, an African queen in some classical story or other?

Victoria, Augusta, Amelia, Sophia, Charlotte, Adelaide - all nice regal names with a Hapsburg flavour.

Eugenie is a lovely name - another empress!

Queenie

Imperatrix

Donna means lady!

zenobia

Harriet means house-ruler.

right, more help needed please.
the baby girl arrived two days ago. her parents chose ameera. the grandparents have poohpooed it, so now dsister wants more suggestions.... help!!!!!!!

Romola

Olympia?

Maeve is lovely.

Cleo is lovely too. WEouldn't go so far as cleopatra tho!

Oh sorry. Baby here. Ameera not to my taste. I really like Amaya though.

Andromeda means 'leader of men'.
