- Thais
Origin:
GreekMeaning:
"beloved, bandage"Description:
A paramour of Alexander the Great and the heroine of a Jules Massenet opera based on the life of a fourth century Egyptian saint, this name is nothing if not dramatic.

- Thalassa

GreekMeaning:
"the sea"Description:

- Theia
Origin:
GreekMeaning:
"goddess, godly"Description:

- Themis
Origin:
GreekMeaning:
"law of nature, divine law"Description:
Themis was the Titan -- one of the Elder Gods (or in this case Goddesses) -- of Justice and Order, usually depicted blindfolded and holding the scales of justice. Themis was the mother of the Fates and the seasons. While her name has fallen from mortal use, Themis might rise again along with such rediscovered goddess names as Aurora and Juno.

Feminine variation of Theodotus, Latin from GreekMeaning:
"given to god"Description:
With Theodora showing signs of revival, this rare saints' name could be an appealing alternative.
