  1. Raegan
    • Origin:

      Spelling variation of Reagan, Irish
    • Meaning:

      "little king"
    • Description:

      Less popular than Reagan, but more popular than Regan, Raegan is a spelling option for the popular Irish surname. It followed Reagan up the charts in the 90s, perhaps due to its similarity to Morgan, but in recent years, use of Raegan has declined
  2. Roan
    • Origin:

      Variation of Rowan, Irish and Scottish
    • Meaning:

      "little redhead"
    • Description:

      This variation of Rowan, which is also a color name rhyming with Joan, is more popular for boys than girls, as are the other variations of the name. Rowan is the most popular spelling of the name for both genders, followed by Rowen, and then there's Rohan, Rohen, and so on.
  3. Aoibheann

      Irish
    • Meaning:

      Welsh variation of John
    • Meaning:

      "God is gracious"
    • Description:

      Evan is a boys' favorite that has been given the feminine touch by talented actress Evan Rachel Wood. If you want to move beyond Eva and Evelyn and like unisex names, this may be a good bet for you (though like Evan Rachel Wood, you may want a feminine name in the middle name position to clarify matters). Evanna is also another alternative.
  5. Tegan

      Welsh
    • Meaning:

      "fair"
    • Description:

      Tailored Tegan comes from a Welsh saint's name. Teagan is just a little bit different, from an Irish surname. The ea spelling is much more popular.

      Variation of Adeline
    • Meaning:

      "noble, nobility"
    • Description:

      Adeline in all its forms, including Adelyn, is rocketing up the list, but we do prefer the original to the variations. Or you might consider varying it yet further to Adelia, Adele, or Adelaide. Or lengthen it to Madeline/Madelyn.

      Variation of Adeline, French
    • Meaning:

      "noble, nobility"

    • Origin:

      Irish
    • Meaning:

      "poet"

  13. Flynn
    • Origin:

      Irish
    • Meaning:

      "descendant of the red-haired one"
    • Description:

      A winning last-name-first Celtic choice, Flynn is still mostly used for boys, such as the son of Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr. Though Flynn is definitely one of the Irish surname names, from Quinn to Flannery to Makenna, that makes one of the trendy boy names for girls".
  14. Dawson
    • Origin:

      English
    • Meaning:

      "son of David"
    • Description:

      It may have a masculine sound and meaning, but Dawson is becoming increasingly popular for baby girls, too. Blame it on Dylan and Logan and the wider trend of surname names for both genders. Over 70 baby girls were given the name in 2020.

      Irish
    • Meaning:

      English
    • Meaning:

      "woman from Magdala or high tower"
    • Description:

      Biblical name long associated with the fallen-yet-redeemed Mary Magdalen, now rising improbably into the ranks of the fashionable among parents hungry for classic yet distinctive girls' names. The Magdalene and Magdalena versions are perhaps even more stylish. Can be shortened to Maggie or Magda but the full version is prettiest. One of our new favorites!
  17. Rhonwen
    • Origin:

      Welsh
    • Meaning:

      "slender, fair"
    • Description:

      The delicate and haunting Welsh Rhonwen is still a rarity in the U.S., where her English version Rowena is better known, but would be a lovely choice for any parent in search of a name that was both unusual and traditional, classically feminine yet strong.
  18. Rhoswen
    • Origin:

      Welsh
    • Meaning:

      "white rose"
    • Description:

      If you're looking for an unusual alternative to all those Rose names, Rhoswen might be a good choice. This name has the soft sounds we've come to love from the Welsh language but is still not as familiar as Bronwen and Rhiannon.

    • Origin:

      Irish
    • Meaning:

      "shining, brilliant"
