200+ Compound Girl Names
- Rosemay

EnglishMeaning:
"rose of May"Description:

- Christella

Feminine form of Christopher or Christian, Combination nameMeaning:
"one of carries Christ + star; fairy, all"Description:
Either an alternative feminization to Christina, an elaboration of the French diminutive Christelle , or a compound name, blending the element Christ- with either Stella or Ella. In the case of the latter, it could give you a rather powerful meaning.
- Ellamae
Origin:
Combination of Ella and MaeDescription:
Ellamae was given to a record 80 baby girls in 2021, although the data doesn't record punctuation, so we don't know how many of those will actually go by Ella Mae or Ella-Mae. It's a modern smoosh name with a sweet, old-timey feel.

English combination of Jean and MarieMeaning:
"god is gracious + drop of the sea, bitter, or beloved"Description:
Rather dated smoosh name.
- Clarabel
Origin:
Compound name, blending Clara and BelleMeaning:
"bright and beautiful"Description:
This spelling keeps the appealing meaning of Clara and Belle smooshed together, but without the Disney Cow association some people may have with Clarabelle. Nevertheless, this is the lesser used of the two, given to around 10 babies per year, compared to 30.
- Shailene
Origin:
Modern invention, combination of Shai and LeneMeaning:
"gift; stately + light; beatuiful"Description:
Borne by American actress Shailene Woodley, Shailene is a combination of Shai and the suffix -lene .
- Lilyrose
Origin:
Compound name, made up of Lily and RoseDescription:
A very floral option that somehow doesn't sound too flowery, perhaps because Lily and Rose are so well-known and well-used as given names. As a hyphenated name, Lily-Rose is in the UK Top 400, while Lilyrose itself is given to 7 babies each year. Lilly-Rose is also in the Top 700 while Lillie-Rose sits just outside the Top 1000, so while Lilyrose is rare, the sounds are familiar and often used together.
- Idamae
- Adalee

Combination of Ada and LeeDescription:
Adalee's rise is thanks to the current fashion for all names ada-related. It does have a sweet melodic charm.

Origin:
Combination of Maria and JuliaMeaning:
"drop of the sea, bitter, or beloved + youthful or sky father"Description:
A once popular choice in Spain, Mariajulia — or more often Maria Julia as a double first name — has since fallen out of favor. A notable bearer is model, dancer, and teacher, María Julia Mantilla García who won Miss World 2004. She uses the nickname "Maju" which has some of the sweetness, style, and unexpectedness of the French Lilou — and this might sell the name to some.
