Animal Names for Girls

If you're looking for a floral name without the fluff, Blejan might be your girl. This Cornish girl name feels decidedly unflowery with its hard consonants and streamlined appearance.

Blær is a rare Icelandic name meaning "light gust or breeze" that made headlines due to one family's battle to be allowed to use it for their daughter. Iceland has strict name laws and it is not permitted to use a traditionally male name for a girl. The name was only finally allowed when she was 15 years old. Blær is also a (female) character in a novel by the famous Icelandic writer Halldór Laxness.
