- Kyrie
Origin:
Short form of Kyra or GreekMeaning:
"Lord"Description:
Kyrie elieson is one of the oldest religious refrains, meaning Lord, have mercy. As a first name, though, Kyrie is less a name of God and more a nickname-name that might be short for Kyra or a diminutive that stands on its own, a la Kylie. The best-known Kyrie is the male basketball player Kyrie Irving, who pronounces the first syllable to rhyme with my rather than fear. He has inspired more than 1000 baby boys to be given this name one recent year in the US, while it was given to 178 baby girls. Impressive numbers.
- Faustine
Origin:
Latin, feminine variation of FaustMeaning:
"fortunate one"Description:

- Madge
Origin:
Diminutive of Margery or MargaretMeaning:
"pearl"Description:
A super diminutive nickname name, and sometime Madonna nickname – it was how the British tabloids referred to her when she moved to London in the 1990s, which she found annoying until then husband Guy Ritchie said it stood for 'Your Majesty'. Madge Undersee is Katniss's best friend in The Hunger Games books.
- Liane
- Katharine
Origin:
Spelling variation of Katherine, GreekMeaning:
"pure"Description:

- Clarabelle
Origin:
LatinMeaning:
"bright and beautiful"Description:
A combination name that might be dismissed as a clown and cow name. The sounds are nevertheless pretty and the meaning is good - though spellings Claribel or Clarabel might help distance it from the cow association.

French, diminutive of JeanneDescription:
Relic of a past period of French favorites, out to pasture with Claudette and Paulette.
- Zélie
Origin:
FrenchMeaning:
"noble"Description:
