7 Ideas for Choosing a Name for Your Baby Girl

There are many factors you might consider when choosing a name for your baby girl. Whether you’d like to select a common, popular name or something rarer, there are plenty of routes you can take to get you to the perfect name! Here are ways to go about making this important decision:

1. Search for a Girls’ Name That’s Pretty Different

Choose a unique name for your baby girl—something that’s cool, preppy, or edgy, but still beautiful in its own way—by selecting a name that isn’t at the top of the most popular list.

2. Honor a Female Relative by Choosing a Beautiful Girls’ Name From the Family Tree

Choose a name in the family—it could be your mother’s name, grandmother’s name, aunt’s name, etc.

3. Be Inspired by Your Beautiful Surroundings

Look for a name inspired by something around you, such as nostalgic country girl names, monikers connected to nature, or flower names, all perfect for a little girl.

4. Go for a Tried-and-True Traditional Girls’ Name

If you’re old-school, choose an old-fashioned girls’ name or a name that’s found in the Bible.

5. Pick a Girls’ Name That’s Cute, Cool, and Modern

If you consider yourself a trendy parent, go with a unisex name, especially if you’ve decided to let your baby’s gender be a surprise. There are plenty of cute and cool girl name options that are a great fit for modern times.

6. Dig Deep Into History for a Pretty Retro Girls’ Name

If you’d like something a bit retro, choose from a list of 90s baby names or even ones from decades past by using the SSA website to search for name data as far back as 1879. Simply pick any year—whether that year has significance for you or not—and retrieve results for the girls’ names that were popular back then.

7. Seek Input From Your Family and Friends

If you want to leave it up to popular opinion, you could host a baby-naming party where friends and family come up with sweet suggestions for your baby girl’s name.

The Bottom Line

We hope this list of 1,000 names for girls lends inspiration on your journey of choosing the best option for your baby’s moniker! If you’re still on the fence or need even more ideas, check out this extensive list of baby girl names by letter of the alphabet, starting with A. Here you’ll surely find the perfect option for your little lady. By the way, if you’re looking for the perfect middle name for your baby girl, any of the above could work.
