Three Syllable Girl Names

  1. Tamora
    • Origin:

      Meaning unknown
    • Description:

      Attractive name associated both with a queenly character who meets a very grisly end in Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus and popular teen fantasy novelist Tamora Pierce. Shakespearean puns in the name include amor for love and moor as the character was in love with a Moor, though any parent interested in the name should be aware of its tragic association.

    • Gisela
      • Aleeza

      • Azubah
        • Origin:

        • Meaning:

          "desolation"
        • Description:

          Azubah is one of those unique baby names from the Bible that is both uncommon and usable, especially given that trendy letter Z in the middle.
