      American invented name; homonym of Emmy
    • Meaning:

      "universal"
    • Description:

      "purple"
    • Description:

      Now that Violet is becoming more popular, parents are starting to explore same-but-different options such as the French Violette, which would properly be pronounced with a long e sound in the first syllable and three syllables -- vee-oh-let -- as well as the Spanish Violeta — both of which were among the fastest-rising girl names of 2023.

      English word name
    • Meaning:

      "secret"
    • Description:

      Runes are symbols in ancient Germanic alphabets. They are often viewed as mysterious and therefore as a name, Rune imparts a feeling of folkloric mystery. As intriguing as that might be, the homonym ruin creates a lot of teasing potential.
  6. Vinnie

      English, diminutive of Lavinia
    • Description:

      A winning, gold locket nickname name of the turn of the last century, though also a common nickname for Vincent.

    • Origin:

      Short form of Deborah or Debra
    • Meaning:

      "bee"
    • Description:

  9. Jacobine
    • Origin:

      Feminine variation of Jacob, Hebrew
    • Meaning:

      "supplanter"

  11. Junie
    • Origin:

      Diminutive of June
    • Description:

      A cute nickname, but June is a much better bet for the birth certificate.

      Irish
    • Meaning:

      "strength or exalted one"
    • Description:

    • Origin:

      Spanish from Arabic
    • Meaning:

      "hidden river, valley of the wolves"
    • Description:

      Popular Spanish name that relates to the patron saint of Mexico. It could conceivably, like Soledad and Consuelo, cross the border into multicultural territory, but the name's decline since the nineties would seem to make that less likely.
