There are many traditional and classic girl names that are popular all over the world. They include Alice (noble), Amelia (hardworking), Abigail (my father is joy), Gwyneth (happiness), Edith (wealth), and Sussanah (lily).

How do I make sure the baby girl name I choose is easy to pronounce and spell?

Names that are easy to spell are also easy to pronounce. These consist of a few syllables that are very short. You can choose from some common options like Mia (friendly), Ella (beautiful), Emily (eager or laborious), Grace (goodness), Jess (God exists), Lucy (light), Jen (fair one), and Molly (star of the sea).

What are some baby girl names that work well in multiple languages/cultures?

Should I consider the popularity of a baby girl’s name when choosing one for my child?

It would be best to start your baby name search by looking at the popularity of different names. This will be helpful if you desire a trendy name for your child. However, avoid overly popular names as they lack individuality and impact. Your child may prefer an easy-to-pronounce yet unique name when they grow up.

What are some rare girl names?

Rare names allow your child to stand out as they cannot be mistaken for popular and overused names. Very few parents have taken such names over the decades. You can choose from Zendaya (to give thanks), Chantria (moonlight), Yamileth (beautiful), Saanvi (one who will be followed), and Monserrat (jagged mountain).
