My Top 10 Girl Names

Hey guys! So I have my top 10 girl names for you today. We are getting closer to the day I started this blog! Monday is the one year!!! Anyway for the girl list it was really hard for me to come up with names. The first 7 names are probably set in stone. The other 3 kind of change. I do love these names. So let’s get started.

1. Olivette- Olivette means olive tree in Latin. Olivette use to be my number 2 name and my number 2 name use to be my number 1 name but I changed them. I like the name Olivia but it is too popular for me so that’s where Olivette came in. I love the nickname Olive for it!
2. Athena- Athena means wise in Greek. I use to have this as my number one name but that changed because I started to like Olivette more. The meaning of Athena is great! That’s something that matters to me. The nickname I would use would be Thena. Also the combo I have for this name is Athena Love.
3. Reed- Reed means red-haired in English. I know this is a boy name but I love it on a girl. I do prefer it as a nickname but I haven’t found any names that I love to use it as a nickname for. I only like this spelling too.
4. Mack- Mack means son of in Gaelic. I know another boy name but I would only use this one as a nickname as with Reed I might use it on its own. I don’t like the names Mackenzie, Makenna, Makayla, or Mckinley so I couldn’t use Mack as a nickname. I do like Maclean, McKay, McKeltie, McClain, Maclynn, Macrae, Mckelina, and McCoy.
5. Philomena- Philomena means powerful love in Greek. I love the name Philomena with the nickname Mena or Pippa. It’s another name that I find grand and strong and very powerful. I heard this name on formspring and hated it at first but now I love it.
6. Holland- Holland means ridge land in English. Holland is the only place name I have in my top 20 or so. I like place names but not enough to put them on my list.  The only problem I have with this name is that I don’t like the nickname Holly.
7. Juniper- Juniper means juniper bush in Latin. I love the sound of this name. The p sounds so nice and strong in the name. Also, I love the nickname June for it or Junie. To me Juniper sounds so summery and girly.
8. Magnolia- Magnolia means Magnol’s flower in Latin. Magnolia is my favorite flower name. I love the sound of it and the spelling. There is actually a street in the place that I go on vacation to every year that is named Magnolia and there is another that is named Juniper! As for nicknames I like Maggie, Nola, and Nolie.
9. Anaxandra- Anaxandra is a Greek name but I don’t know the meaning. I love names with x in them. I first found this name while doing research on Greek name and was like I love this name! it is a great alternative to Alexandra and Anna. I would use the nicknames Anax or Xander (said like Zander).
10. Sailor- Sailor means boat man in American. I’m not sure how I feel in love with this name or where I first saw it but I love this name. It use to be on my guilty pleasure list but I moved it to my regular list because I love it so much. If I really think about it I don’t think I would use it only because I won’t have 10 girls. The nickname I would use would probably be Sail or Sally.

So that is my list I know must people won’t like them but I truly love them. they make me who I am and what I like. Let me know what you think in the comments below. I hope you liked this and bye for now :).
