What could be better than picking out a name for your beautiful baby girl? Joyful as it is, finding unique baby girl names isn’t easy. Even if parents agree that they want a name that’s “unique,” that might include everything from uncommon girl names, to especially cute, unisex, or even super old-fashioned ones.
The Social Security Administration keeps track of the name of every child born in the United States, so we know which names American parents like to use for their kids — and how those preferences change over time. Those numbers can also help you differentiate between truly unique baby girl names and those that thousands of other parents also thought were one-of-a-kind ideas. Think you’re the only one considering Harper? Pffft. It’s been one of the most popular baby girl names since 2014. But we’ve done the dirty work for you, digging through decades’ worth of baby names to find the most beautiful and unique baby girl names. Take a look and choose wisely.
