Today, there are few native English names left: many names were borrowed from Celtic, Norman, Hebrew, Ancient Greek and other cultures. Names praising the power of the gods, the forces of nature, the individual qualities of a person's character were common in the past. And as a result, the meaning of ancient names may be unusual for a modern person.

After the arrival of Christianity in Europe, the names of biblical characters became common: Sarah, Agnes, Mary. A certain kind of human activity was also reflected in the names: Abella is a shepherdess, Bailey is a sheriff's assistant.

Sometimes the shortened version of the name becomes an independent name, for example, Victoria - Wiki; Rebecca - Becky; Angelina - Angie.

Popular English female names

Fashion is a passing and recurring phenomenon. The fashion for names is no exception. Olivia, Emma and Sophie are the most popular female names according to UK National Statistics.

Top 10 English female names are presented below:

1. Olivia
2. Emma.
3. Sofia
4. Isabel
5. Charlotte
6. Emily
7. Harper
8. Abigail

The entertainment industry, and specifically cinema, also has an impact on the popularity of names. Thanks to the TV series Game of Thrones, the following names have become popular among the British: Arya (24th place in the ranking of popular female names in the UK in 2014), Sansa, Brienne, Catelyn and Daenerys.

The heroine of the Twilight saga, Bella Swan, gave a new life to the name Isabella.

At first glance, the name Hermione seems outdated, but thanks to the adaptation of the Harry Potter series of books, this name seems to have gained a “second life”.

The status of the bearer of the name also affects the prestige of the name itself. According to the results of a survey conducted in the UK, among the inhabitants of foggy Albion, the most and least "successful" female names were revealed.

The most successful female names

1. Elizabeth
2. Caroline
3. Olivia
4. Amanda

Less successful female names

1. Julia
2. Emily

As we can see from the above results, the full forms of the name sound more aristocratic and sublime, which gives weight to their bearers, while simpler names are associated with “simpler” girls. Despite the fact that Lisa is a shortened form of the name Elizabeth, nevertheless, full form name took the leading position in the ranking, while the abbreviated form is not popular.

Rare English female names

The names below are not even temporarily popular in the ratings. Named outsiders include:

Russian pronunciation	Name translation
	utility, grace
allin
	attractive
Bernays	Bringer of victory
	Child
Bekkay	Trapping
	my oath
Willow
	Power from God
Dominic	Lord's property
	multiplying
Delours
	gemstone
georgina	peasant woman
	Bird
Kiva	Beautiful
	Blonde
Lukinda
	babbling
Morgan	sea ​​circle
	Darling
Melisa
	Beautiful girl
Mindy	black snake
	Pearl
Penelope	sly weaver
	Poppy
Rosaulin	tender mare
	Young woman
Phyllis	tree crown
	Heather
Edwena	Wealthy girlfriend

It is likely that it is the unusual sound of the name, its meaning and dissonance that are the reasons for the rare use of the name. However, the combination of euphony and meaning in no way guarantees the popularity of the name in modern world. For example, the original English name Mildred, in different sources, means “noble” or “gentle strength”, despite the euphony and meaning, it is not popular today.

Beautiful English female names

The beauty of a woman can be compared to a flower, and her name to its fragrance. Therefore, the harmony and beauty of a name for a woman is very great importance. Despite the fact that everyone has different tastes, there are still names that sound beautiful to most people:

Unusual celebrity baby names

Unusual names among ordinary people are quite rare, because when choosing a name for a child, parents try to choose an attractive, in their opinion, name, without risk to the unborn child.

To draw attention to their person, celebrities act the other way around, because the name of the child is another way to stand out. But can the exclusivity of the name compensate for its meaninglessness?

These thinkers include:

1. Bruce Willis. name younger daughters after horses? No problem, because the horses won at the races! That's exactly what Bruce Willis did, naming his younger daughters after his favorite horses who won at the races - Scout LaRue and Tallupa Bell.

2. Gwyneth Paltrow named her daughter Apple (Russian - "apple"). Favorite fruit of the actress? It is not that simple! The girl's name is associated with biblical legend about heavenly forbidden fruit.

3. 50 Cent."Give" a child a title by means of a name? Why not... yes! Rapper 50 Cent named his child Marquis. But the Marquise is a boy. A good way to educate self-respect, indifference to other people's opinions and fortitude of the child.

4. Singer David Bowie picked up the baton and named his son the name Zoe (female name). Only because he thought Zoe Bowie's combination was funny.

5. Beyoncé and Jay-Z. Blue Ivy, or Blue Ivy, is the daughter of Beyoncé and Jay-Z. Name choice celebrity couple argued with excerpts from the novel by Rebecca Solnit, where the blue color (Blue - blue) gives "beauty to the whole world." And the word Ivy (Ivy) is similar to the Roman numeral IV, which is associated with many events in the life of the singer.

6. Actress Milla Jovovich named her daughter Ever Gabo. The second part of the name consists of the first syllables of Mila's parents - Galina and Bogdan. Perhaps the combination of parts of the names of relatives guarantees the happiness of the child?

7. Frank Zappa. American rock musician Frank Zappa named his daughter Moon Unit. (Lunar Satellite). Isn't the musician's desire a good reason for choosing a baby's name?

8. Christina Aguilera. Summer rain music... Let it sound in the daughter's name too! Singer Christina Aguilera, not wanting to give her daughter a banal name, called her simply “Summer Rain” (Summer Rain).

In modern cinema, you can really find masterpieces that you want to perpetuate in names. Why limit yourself to a flight of fantasy that does not go beyond the names of your favorite characters? Let's expand the boundaries by using ordinary words that are not proper names. Khaleesi, a new female name, a tribute to the "Game of Thrones": (khaleesi is the title of one of the heroines of the series, a synonym for a queen or queen). Today at real world there are already 53 girls with that name.

There are no limits to human imagination, so she will not bypass the names either. Over time, we will definitely find out which of the new names will take root and become loved, and which will soon be forgotten.

The name is the personal name of a person that is given to him at birth, this is a well-known fact. As a rule, when meeting a new person, we tell him our name, and the person names his. Why can we be interested and useful British and American names? In fact, everything is very simple. We read about such people in books and articles on the Internet, we watch English and American films. In this article, we will analyze the origin and compile a list of common female and male English and American names.

Origin

Traditions associated with English and American names are different from what we are used to. In English-speaking countries, a person's name consists of three components: the first (given name), the second (middle name) and the surname (surname). The role of the first and second can be traditional names and even surnames. In addition, diminutive forms are often used (for example, these are Americans known to all of us: Bill Clinton or Johnny Depp), even in an official setting.

The history of the origin of names always helps to learn more about the history of the country, its culture. In England, you can find names of Anglo-Saxon origin, biblical and imbued with Protestant culture (Faith-My-Joy, Everlasting-Mercy), borrowings from other cultures and familiar to everyone individual names, which today can be any common noun.

At first glance, it seems that choosing a name for a girl is a simple matter. But how difficult it is sometimes to find a suitable English female name! After all, opinions in the family often differ, and young parents have to defend their choice in front of grandparents, friends and close relatives.

You can choose a name by months, by ear, by sound, or by the meaning that lies in it, or simply in honor of a relative whose fate was interesting and exciting. Based on your own considerations or on some other parameters, you still have to choose a name, because a child cannot live without a name.

At different peoples names are spelled differently. For example, modern English female names have many sources of origin, and the principle of their creation is different from what we are used to. So the name of an Englishman can contain the first name, middle name and surname. At the same time, one or another surname may appear in the first and second names. This tradition goes back hundreds of years. Initially, only nobles could afford to choose a surname instead of a given name - this was their privilege.

We can discover among English female names French (Olivia), Arabic (Amber), Aramaic (Martha), Persian (Esther, Jasmine, Roxanne), Greek (Angel, Selina), Hebrew (Michelle), Spanish (Dolores, Linda), Italian (Bianca, Donna, Mia ), Latin (Cordelia, Diana, Victoria), Scandinavian (Brenda), Celtic (Tara), Old English (Wayne...), Slavic (Nadia, Vera) and Turkish (Ayla).

One more interesting feature English-speaking countries is an address to a person in a diminutive form. In our country, such treatment, as a rule, is unacceptable, and sometimes it can even be considered humiliating.

How to choose an English female name? It should not be too long, while it should be easy to pronounce. It should also be borne in mind that in a homely atmosphere, the name is often transformed into a diminutive form. In addition, the first name must match the last name.

It is known that the character of a child is influenced not only by the month of birth, but also by the time of year in which he was born. Knowing this influence, with the help of a name, you can adjust the future character of the child.

Yes, on summer girls easy to influence, they are distinguished by softness and gullibility, so the names for them must be chosen "solid".

Spring girls are fickle, even a little windy, self-critical, different sharp mind. At the same time, they have a good sense of humor, but some self-doubt. Therefore, for spring girls, it is also worth choosing "hard-sounding" names.

Winter children are distinguished by selfishness and irascibility. They know what they want and always achieve their goals. Therefore, for "winter" girls, it is better to choose names that are soft and gentle, balancing their sometimes very complex character.

For autumn children easy temper. They are serious and reasonable, have different talents. The name has almost no effect on autumn girls, so they can be given any name they like.

Let's see the most popular English female names today. Below you can find a list of popular modern English female names.

Attention!

Sites and blogs have appeared on the Internet that are not our official sites, but use our name. Be careful. Fraudsters use our name, our email addresses for their mailing lists, information from our books and our websites. Using our name, they drag people into various magical forums and deceive (give advice and recommendations that can harm, or extort money for holding magical rituals, making amulets and teaching magic).

On our sites, we do not provide links to magical forums or sites of magical healers. We do not participate in any forums. We do not give consultations by phone, we do not have time for this.

Note! We are not engaged in healing and magic, we do not make or sell talismans and amulets. We do not engage in magical and healing practices at all, we have not offered and do not offer such services.

The only direction of our work is correspondence consultations in writing, learning through an esoteric club and writing books.

Sometimes people write to us that on some sites they saw information that we allegedly deceived someone - they took money for healing sessions or making amulets. We officially declare that this is slander, not true. In all our lives, we have never deceived anyone. On the pages of our site, in the materials of the club, we always write that you need to be an honest decent person. For us, an honest name is not an empty phrase.

People who write slander about us are guided by the basest motives - envy, greed, they have black souls. The time has come when slander pays well. Now many are ready to sell their homeland for three kopecks, and it is even easier to engage in slandering decent people. People who write slander do not understand that they are seriously worsening their karma, worsening their fate and the fate of their loved ones. It is pointless to talk with such people about conscience, about faith in God. They do not believe in God, because a believer will never make a deal with his conscience, he will never engage in deceit, slander, and fraud.

There are a lot of scammers, pseudo-magicians, charlatans, envious people, people without conscience and honor, hungry for money. The police and other regulatory agencies are not yet able to cope with the increasing influx of "Cheat for profit" insanity.

So please be careful!

Sincerely, Oleg and Valentina Svetovid
