Six Letter Girl Names
- Ezlynn
Origin:
American invented nameDescription:
Ezlynn is a name popping with modern sounds and style. While it might appear to be an American invented name, Ezlynn comes to us via Ezlynn Deraniyagala, who was the first female barrister in Sri Lanka. A founding member of the feminist movement in Sri Lanka, Ezlynn also turned her attention to international matters, acting as president of the International Alliance of Women in the crucial days of the early 60s. This is a international choice that doesn't compromise pronounceability or pep while honoring the sisterhood.
- Fedora
Origin:
Greek variation of TheodoraDescription:
Fedora is occasionally heard among the British Mayfair and Belgravia set, but we're afraid that in this country there would be too strong an association with the man's felt hat.
- Mirian

Origin:
Spelling variation of LaurenDescription:
Given a new shot of style by singer Lauryn Hill, this spelling of the name has fallen quite a bit in popularity since its peak of 167 in 1996.
- Neylan
Origin:
Turkish; Gaelic, EnglishMeaning:
"flute player; descendent of Niall; at the island"Description:
Neylan — a name of uncertain origins — seemingly came out of nowhere in 2023. Given to 122 girls, it was used five times more often than it was in the previous year, when it was given to just 25 babies. Mormon women's activist and author Neylan McBaine may played a role in introducing parents to this name.

- Zaylee
Origin:
Modern invented nameDescription:

- Moanna
Origin:
HawaiianMeaning:
"ocean"Description:

Diminutive of Anastasia, GreekMeaning:
"resurrection"Description:
