Unique British Girl Names

And then there are the unique British baby names that only appeared once in the Telegraph announcements – and don’t feature at all in the Top 1000 baby names in the US.

Stylish British girl name trends include long yet lively names of Italian and Greek origin, like Allegra, Elettra, Leonora and Nephele. Sweetly clunky vintage girl names are also in style, like Christabel, Georgiana, Prudence and Winifred. And, of course, nickname names are always beloved by the Brits – the quirkier the better! Milou, Posy, Suki and Tiggy are some of our favorite examples in this category.

Girl names hailing from the British Isles, like Eirlys (Welsh for “snowdrop”) and Tamsin (a Cornish feminine form of Thomas), are also in regular use. And, if unique names are your thing, they have the added benefit of being virtually unheard of outside the UK.
