If you need inspiration for pretty baby names, you’re in the right place.
In one Reddit thread (which you can see here), people shared the prettiest names they’ve ever heard, and I’m honestly pulling out my notes app for future reference.
From classic names you’ve probably heard before to names that are a bit more unique, here’s what 18 different people had to say:
1.
“I’ve always liked classical-sounding names like Calypso, Genevieve, Gwendolyn, or names based on flowers like Rose, Lavender, Lilly, etc.”
4.
“I really like Marisol, it means ocean and sun in Spanish.”
7.
“I am always told people like my daughter’s names. Eden, Annelie, Hollis, Marcella, and Liliana. Yes, five daughters. It’s never quiet in my house lol.”
8.
“Aurora. It sounds like sunlight breaking through a forest. Plus, you can’t say it without softening your voice a little.”
9.
“Came across the name Astrid in a book series I read back in middle school (for those wondering: the Gone series by Michael Grant). I haven’t stopped thinking about it since. It’s one of those names that just flows off the tongue really nicely, and to me personally, it is a really beautiful mix of being a very soft, delicate name and a very strong name with a hint of edge.”
10.
“Met a girl at a summer camp once called Genesis. Might also be because I thought she was super cool and had an awesome vibe, but that name has stuck with me.”
11.
“I always thought the name Alexandra is beautiful (which it is), but when I heard the name Alessandra, I was like ‘ooooh, Alexandra’s cutesy and demure cousin.'”
12.
“While watching The White Lotus Season 2, Valentina bought Isabella a starfish pin and said in Italian, ‘Stellamarina.’ I thought then and there it was the most gorgeous name I’d ever heard and so charming that it’s the word for starfish in Italian!”
13.
“Seraphina. It rolls off the tongue like a little melody and feels both strong and elegant.”
14.
“Ella/Ellen/Ellie. It sounds like a sunny, quiet room in your grandma’s house that’s covered in lace. It sounds feminine and soft.”
15.
“Met a French girl called Coralie many years ago. We’ve met only once, but my god, the way she said her name in her French accent.”
16.
“A friend told me today he was going to name his daughter ‘Meadow’ when she was born. My spontaneous reaction was, ‘Wow, that’s really a nice name.'”
17.
“One of my old coworkers who was super incredibly lovely was named Olympia, and I love the name so much!! It suited her so much, too, as a bubbly and kind person.”
18.
And finally, “Evelyn. It’s my mother’s name, and I always thought it was a beautiful name. She’s 88 and is a beautiful lady.”
