As expected from Anthropologie a bohemian, unexpected and elegant arrangement of names. This list is nothing short from unique.
  1. Abria

    • Description:

      Abria is a feminine name with multiple possible origins. It may be a variation of Aubrey (meaning 'elf ruler' from Germanic origins), a feminine form of Abri (Hebrew for 'father of multitudes'), or derived from Latin 'abra' meaning 'opening' or 'beginning.' The name has a delicate, melodious quality with its three syllables and flowing sound. While not among the most common names, Abria has gained modest attention in recent decades as parents seek distinctive yet accessible options. The name offers the familiarity of popular 'A' names like Aria or Aubrey while maintaining its own identity. Abria projects a sense of gentle strength and femininity with its soft consonants and open vowel sounds.

  2. Avah

    • Origin:

      Variation of Ava, Hebrew, Latin or Germanic "life; bird; water, island"

    • Meaning:

      "life; bird; water, island"

    • Description:

      Spelling variation of Ava, perhaps influenced by the biblical-style, ends-in-H names currently trending: Delilah, Alayah, Aniyah, et al. It entered the US Top 1000 in 2008 where it remained for 14 years, peaking in 2018 when it was given to nearly 680 girls. Now in decline, it was given to around 230 girls in 2023.
  3. Agra
    • Alderney 
      • Alienor 
        • Ankara
          • Apolline 
            • Betsie

              • Description:

                Betsie is a charming feminine name that functions as a diminutive form of Elizabeth or Betsy. With English and Dutch influences, this spelling variation adds a sweet, informal quality to the classic name. Elizabeth, from which it ultimately derives, has Hebrew origins meaning 'God is my oath' or 'pledged to God.' Betsie carries the warm, friendly appeal of nickname forms while maintaining a connection to its regal, biblical root name. Popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries, Betsie has a vintage charm that occasionally returns to favor as parents rediscover traditional diminutives. The name evokes a wholesome, unpretentious personality and has literary associations through various characters in novels and stories.
            • Brady

              • Origin:

                Irish

              • Meaning:

                "one with broad eyes"

              • Description:

                Has the energetic-Irish-slightly-boyish image that many modern parents love.
            • Brea

              • Origin:

                Spelling variation of Bria or short form of Breana

              • Description:

                Brea is another spin on the increasingly-popular Bria, another entry in the stylish Mia-Leah-Gia sisterhood. While Bria is on the charts with an arrow toward the top, Brea is used more quietly, maybe because the spelling makes the pronunciation less clear. Is it bree-a or bray (answer: bree-a).
            • Bryce

              • Origin:

                Scottish surname

              • Meaning:

                "speckled, freckled"

              • Description:

                Bryce is the preferred spelling over Brice for both genders, with nearly 70 girls named Bryce in one recent year vs. only five called Brice. But note that there were over 3000 boys named Bryce and 240 named Brice, making this a predominantly male name. Actress Bryce Dallas Howard, daughter of director Ron, is the most notable female bearer of this name.

                      Italian from Greek or Latin

                    • Meaning:

                      "wild boar; goats"

                    • Description:

                      Chosen by the late Kobe Bryant and his wife Vanessa for their youngest daughter, there is renewed interest in Italian isola name Capri.

                    • Meaning:

                    • Description:

                      Cool a few decades ago, along with Lori and Tori. Currently out of fashion but may make a retro tomboy choice as an offbeat spin on Charlie.
