Unusual Names For Baby Girls

Names for baby girls come in different styles and sizes and no matter what you're looking for I can help.

Are you looking for a name that is a bit more traditional? Then you may try Elizabeth. This name is Hebrew and means "my god is a vow." Or a variation of it Eliza, or Elizah both meaning the same thing. I think Sarah and Mary are two of the most traditional names, Sarah meaning princess in Hebrew and Mary meaning "bitter" in Hebrew.

If you are looking for something a little more unique then you can go with just about anything. You could use numbers and letters, which some parents are starting to do, but if you don't want that unique then try Kaitlyn from Gaelic meaning "pure." Adelaide from Germany meaning "noble" is very unique for most places.

Maybe names for baby girls are more important to have a strong or deep meaning. Like Aalish from France meaning "of noble kind." Or Netri meaning "great leader." Esosa means "a blessing of god" or Narue "turning into a blessing."

Maybe you want something that is American like DeeDee or Dixie. Maybe French like Adalina or Jocelyn. Or even Welsh names for baby girls like Adwen, Dylana, and Trista.

Or maybe you want to name your child after someone special like Rosa, for Rosa Parks who refused to give her seat. Joan after the great Joan of Arc. Hanna after Hannah Adams the first American woman professional writer. Antoinette after Antoinette Brown the first female minister in America.

There are so many wonderful names for baby girls to choose from. For instance, Abagail which means "father in rejoicing" and Aspen which is based off the aspen tree which is the first tree to sprout after forest fires. Maybe Heidi suites you which means "noble one." Or for you Dave Ramsey fans Tabatha meaning "gazelle."

Top 5 Unusual New Baby Presents

So you've been invited to a baby shower or a friend's just had a new baby and now you have to decide on a gift. But with so much choice out there, where do you start? Here are my top 5 unusual new baby presents to give you a helping hand:

1. The Nappy Cake.

Before I hear you say 'bleurgh!' this isn't a cake that you eat! A nappy cake is made from rolled nappies, arranged into tiers to resemble a wedding cake. They are then filled and decorated with useful baby items and make a fantastic centerpiece for the baby shower as well as a fantastic gift as they really have the 'wow' factor. They are available in different sizes and to suit all pockets so there'll be something amazing for your budget.

2. The Baby Bouquet

Instead of the usual bunch of flowers, why not go one step further and give a bouquet made from baby clothing rolled to look like flowers? Usually combined with foam or silk flowers and foliage these can be difficult to distinguish from the real thing. Also, unlike real flowers, this gift won't wilt and can be enjoyed until the arrival of the new baby when the clothing will come in very handy.

For those on a more limited budget, go for a sock rose. Make from 1 pair of baby socks they are rolled to resemble a single rose complete with leaf and then wrapped in cellophane & ribbon. Especially good as a small token baby shower gift if you are planning on getting a larger baby present after the baby has arrived.

3. Baby Sock Cupcakes

Just like the real thing, but kinder to the waistline! These cupcakes are actually made from little baby socks each nestled within a reusable silicone cupcake case and packaged in bakery boxes. Get pinks for a girl, blues for a boy or a combination of candy colours for a mouthwateringly visual treat.

4. Baby Smoothies

Want a unique gift? Go for a baby smoothie - so delicious mum-to-be will want to drink it! Looking like a fruity smoothie topped with whipped cream, they are in fact made from a baby sleepsuit & hat within a smoothie cup, topped with a weaning spoon. A very practical gift with fantastic & unique packaging!

5. Candy Box Socks

Strapped for cash but want to give a memorable & useful gift? Try Candy Box Socks - looking like a box of brightly coloured sweets, they are actually individual baby socks. These will definitely last longer than a box of candies!
