6500+ Girl Names That End in E

  1. Iolanthe
    • Origin:

      Greek
    • Meaning:

      "violet flower"
    • Description:

      Iolanthe is known primarily through the 1882 Gilbert & Sullivan operetta of that name, in which the title character is a fairy. Iolanthe is a softer version of Yolanda, and is the kind of multi-syllabic classical name once considered too weighty for a modern baby girl, but now within the realm of possibility--this one as a dramatic twist on Violet. The biggest drawback is its variety of legitimate pronunciations in English.
  2. Elyse
    • Origin:

      Variation of Elise or Elysia
    • Meaning:

      "pledged to God"
    • Description:

      Greek
    • Meaning:

      "fair flower"

      Diminutive of Adelaide or Adeline
