My continuation of the Nameberry 'Hipper Than Hipster' Blog Post from 2009
- Beaudelaire "Beau"
- Frostine
Origin:
FrenchMeaning:
"freezing"Description:
Frostine, best known in the U.S. as the name of the Candyland queen, is newly fashionable in France and is certainly a choice that any little girl the world over would love. Fanciful, if over-the-top, but a perfect name for a winter baby girl.
- Gallant
- Jerzy
Origin:
Polish variation of GeorgeMeaning:
"farmer"Description:
Writer Jerzy Kosinski put this foreign variation on the U. S. name map.
- Kismet "Kizzy"
- Lhotse
- Malachy
Origin:
Irish version of Malachi, HebrewMeaning:
"second"Description:
This spelling, which came to the attention of readers of the best-selling Angela's Ashes as the name of author Frank McCourt's father and brother, the latter of whom wrote a bestseller of his own, lends the biblical name a more expansive, almost boisterous image. Malachy is one of the Irish baby names that manages to strike the golden mean between familiarity and distinctiveness.
- Ozymandias "Ozzy"
