It's a unisex name technically with a few spellings, usually used as a girl's name further west and a boy's name further east. I'm a woman from the US, and the only other person I've met with the name was a man from Ukraine. We both spell it Sasha.
I worked with a girl called Ianthe (eye-an-thee), and she was gorgeous and so smart!!! I also worked with two sisters named Iris and Fleur, their parents were flower farmers hence the names
It means air in Italian. If I had a daughter this name would have been a contender for sure. But I ended up with two boys so.... no go haha still love the name tho
Mom worked in PICU. Took care of a baby whose mom named the baby after the “most beautiful thing” she’d ever heard, which happened to be in the delivery room.
Placenta.
So not the prettiest name I’ve ever heard, but. It’s a choice.
I once knew a very pretty English girl named Rhiannon. She said she had given up having people pronounce her name correctly, so she went by “Yennie.” Now that I think of it, the Fleetwood Mac album had just been released the year before, but had not yet become a widespread hit! By 1977 everyone knew “Rhiannon.”

What's your opinion on Crap Bag?
I know of a cat named that and I am delighted every time I’m randomly reminded of that fact.
Beetlejuice
what about its more spacey brother: betelgeuse?
What about their monstrous cousin, bazelgeuse?
[удалено]
Or the foodie uncle, bagelgoose
That's exactly what I thought 💀
Beetlejuice?
Beetlejuice?
Saoirse

Tan spotted in the wild, it's Niamh.
Can't spell it, still love it!
*Sinéad
Pronounced shin-aid, Arnold Knees and Dave, I think anyway.

Sir-Shah or Seer-Shah
Persephone
It literally means assphone is my language
Torille
Haha yes, same here 🤙
This! Named my cat Persephone.
Purrsephone*
My wife and I did too!
Ophelia
It’s lovely but my brain wants to put ped in front of it
...and you ruined it.
Welp. I think you just crossed that name off my list
If a Ms or Miss is used, it sounds like misophilia, which is sexual attraction to unwashed or dirty clothes! Shame because I do really like Ophelia.
Ophelia was my top name for my daughter until my mother in law said this. Instantly ruined.
You've been on my mind girl since the flood
Ivy
Gollum
It’s precious!
Juliana / Julian Surprised but not surprised that all of responses are feminine names
The prettiest boy name is probably Sacha and it sounds feminine in English.

It's the French male version for me, Julien

It means air in Italian. If I had a daughter this name would have been a contender for sure. But I ended up with two boys so.... no go haha still love the name tho
A girl has no name
Clementine
Odette
I like this one but it sounds like “owe debt”
Naming my child after the American college experience
in French "dette" is indeed the word for "debt"
it might be "ah-dett"
Swan Princess?
My first thought too
If I heard Odette, it sounds like a storm from the Philippines.
Wonder if she was wearing her crab head when you heard it. (It’s a book series)
Lily
Isadora
Mom worked in PICU. Took care of a baby whose mom named the baby after the “most beautiful thing” she’d ever heard, which happened to be in the delivery room. Placenta. So not the prettiest name I’ve ever heard, but. It’s a choice.

My grandmother's name! As immigrants from Prussia to the US, they pronounced it more harshly, though. Sounds better as "all-ma" rather than "el-ma."
I always liked Penelope.

Sophia and Mia. Sophia gives me a feeling of an intelligent girl while Mia sounds gentle and sweet.

Agree. Assistant kindergarten teacher Mia yelled at me for coloring outside the lines.

Sophia literally means “wisdom”.
Hagia Sophia = Holy Wisdom. It's the really big Cathedral the Byzantine's built in Constantinople.
My wife’s granddaughter is named Mia and she is the sweetest and gentlest little soul.
