Three Syllable Girl Names

Diamanta is a version of Diamond that is sometimes heard in France, and does soften the hardness of the stone, but lacks authenticity.

This rare name, used by a Byzantine saint, is not as attractive as other Greek "Eu" name like Eugenia, Eulalie and Eudora. This probably belongs in the footnotes of the history books.

Feminine form of Amit that's simple and lyrical and close in spirit to a familiar term for friendship.

This pretty Muslim name is on the rise, along with similar sounding Samara which is now up to #299 in the charts in 2022. Zamara has the added cool factor of the Z first initial.

Unusual Honor or Nora alternative, but we prefer the originals.

Loretto is an old school spelling of the more common Loretta, which comes from the Italian Laura diminutive Lauretta. Antiquated to the point of extinction -- no baby girls have received the name in the US for more than half a century -- Loretto nevertheless ranked among the Top 1000 names until the early 20th centiury.

Is Evalynn an alternative spelling for the popular Evelyn or is it a smoosh name blending Eva and Lynn? It could be either, so the choice is yours.

Modesty is a virtue name dating to Roman times, but never widely used, except for hot 1960s movie spoof heroine, Modesty Blaise, based on a comic strip.

Friendly Slavic rarity.

This operatic Italian name -- it appears in Mozart's "The Magic Flute" -- is a more unusual route to the nickname Pam/Pammy.

Melvina ranked in the Top 1000 for over 65 years in the US, coinciding to a large extent with the years its much more popular masculine counterpart Melvin ranked in the Top 100. Today, Melvin is still hanging on in the Top 1000 for boys, but Melvina hasn't been given to more than 20 babies in a year since 1991.

Sidereal is the English spelling of Sideræl, one of the middle names Grimes and Elon Musk chose for their daughter. They used "a more elven" spelling of the word sidereal, which Grimes defined as "the true time of the universe, star time, deep space time, not our relative earth time."
