6500+ Girl Names That End in E
- Melusine
Origin:
French, folkloric nameDescription:
Melusine was a figure from early European folklore, associated with the water. Her legends are especially connected with the northern and western areas of France, as well as the Low Countries.

Origin:
Medieval variation of RosalindDescription:
