1798 Four Letter Girl Names

Rarely given to baby girls, but we like the idea of it.

Hela, another name for Hel, is the Norse goddess of death and the underworld. The Hela form has been appropriated by Marvel for its goddess of death.

Hava is an anglicization of the Hebrew name Chava, which, like its English form Eve, means "life". In some accents, it may sound like "have a", so it's worth considering if this will be an issue combined with a last name. But overall, it's an elegantly simple name with a great meaning.

Soft, sultry resonance.

Not as lively or independent as Gigi, Kiki, or Coco.

Both a spiky variant of Agatha, predominantly used in Poland, Atka is also an Inuit name with a spiritual meaning.

Used almost exclusively for boys in England; Rafe would make for an amiable choice here -- whether as a nickname for Rafaela or standing on its own. This is one of the sleeker tomboy names for girls, alongside Drew and Indie.

While in Armenia, Italy and Nigeria Saro is regarded as a masculine name, in English Saro is a rare feminine name, familiar because of the old English folk song Pretty Saro, which was rediscovered in the 20th century, having been preserved through Appalachian oral tradition. In the song, Saro is a girl whom the singer has had to leave behind in his home country after emigrating, which might give an indication as to how it came to be found in North America. Saro in this case is generally thought to be a diminutive of Sarah.

Klea was not used in ancient times, but can probably be connected to the Ancient Greek name Kleio, one of the nine Muses in mythology, and of couse also to Cleo. Meaning "glory", these names are distantly related to the Latin Clara.

An Italian word name that somehow feels incomplete in itself.

Enyo is the Greek goddess of war, the female counterpart to the god Ares. Enyo's Roman equivalent in Bellona.

Probably intended as a variant spelling of Kyle, this German word (meaning "wedge") is not used as a name there.
