100 Strong Baby Girl Names

Finding the perfect name for your new little baby girl is probably the hardest decision you’ll have to make.

She will have this name for life so you need to make sure it’s a good one.

Of course having a name which has a special meaning for you is also important so research is key.

Traditionally, women have had to fight hard to gain power and status. So today we value strong women more than ever.

Gone are the days when women are expected to be beautiful, quiet wallflowers.

Instead, we want our daughters to be strong, confident, and comfortable with their own unique power.

This is reflected in the way we parent our girls; encouraging them, bolstering them, and preparing them for the challenges that life will hold.

But the strength you know your daughter has within her can also be reflected in her name.

You might choose to name your baby girl after a strong woman in your life, or a woman you admire.

Or you could pick a name that sounds strong; that makes you feel bold and courageous when you say it out loud.

It’s also important to look at the meaning behind a name when you’re searching for a name that fits your girl’s feminine strength.

Many gorgeous and enchanting girl’s names have deeper meanings.

They might refer to inner strength; to wisdom or intelligence; to skill, endurance, or determination.

Set your daughter up for success by giving her a name that commands respect and confidence.

Let it roll off her tongue with ease when she introduces herself to other people.

And each time she does so, she’ll quietly thank you for giving her a name that suits her true character.

Let’s help you out with 100 strong baby girl names for your new daughter and a quick run down of their meanings.

Remember,the name you give your daughter will stick with her for the rest of her days, so be sure to put serious thought into your final choice.

It could also be that you pick a name prior to your baby being born, but the moment you see her you realize it just doesn’t ‘fit’.

That’s OK!

Some parents prefer to wait and see what their baby looks like, but it’s always a good idea to have at least a shortlist in place.

Draw up a list of names you love and include their meanings so that you can remind yourself when you need to.

Your little girl has a lot of life ahead of her. She has infinite things to learn, and a wealth of experiences to immerse herself in.

She will grow joyfully in the good times, and grow stronger with each challenge she faces.

Through it all, she’ll say “My name is…?”

If you haven’t found the perfect strong name for your baby daughter on this list, we have one more tip for you.

Go to the movies!

No, seriously.

Think of your favorite films with strong female characters or leads.

What were those women called?

Write down their names and mull them over for a few days.

Female movie characters often have awesome names; they have to be punchy, attention-grabbing, and ideally memorable.

So you might find a fitting name among your favorite on-screen heroines.
