Want to find a truly unique baby name that your little girl won't share with any other kids in her playgroup? These one-of-a-kind baby girl names deserve your consideration.
Amelie. Though it might remind you of the whimsical French film Amelie, this is an original (French) take on the name Amelia, meaning "hard-working."
Aria. A strong name for a strong little girl, this is the Italian form of Ariel, meaning "lioness of God."
Bette. Calling to mind the actresses Bette Midler and Bette Davis, this is one of a number of unique midcentury names that's sure to come back in vogue. It's the French version of Betty, meaning "consecrated to God."
Calla. You'll be reminded of the pretty lily so often seen at weddings. Or go a little Greek with the unusual name Calliope, the muse of epic poetry also meaning "beautiful voice."
Cassia. For your feisty girl, this Greek name is a cinnamon-like spice.
Clementine. This sweet fruit also means "merciful" in Latin.
Effie. This Greek name means something we all hope for in our kids: "well spoken of." It can also be short for Alfreda or Euphemia.
Eva. This name was popular back in the 1890s. It's short for Evangelina (Greek), "bearer of good news," or a variation on Eve (Hebrew), meaning "life."
Greta. The 1920s stunner Greta Garbo probably comes to mind; this name is actually short for Gretchen — a German form of Margaret.
Harlow. A play on the popular last name trend (think gorgeous blond star Jean Harlow of the 1930s), this name means "protector of the people."
Inez. A unique Spanish twist on Agnes — a trendy name 100 years ago — this baby girl's name is Greek for "pure."
Kaia. This short and sweet name means "earth" in Greek.
Luella. A familiar form of Louise, this powerful twist on the English moniker means "famous warrior."

Mae. A variation on "May" that's not seen so often these days, this name hit the top 100 around the early 1900s. (And Mae Jemison was the first African American woman in space!)
Melina. This Greek name means "honey."
Naya. Besides the Riviera, this airy little girl's name could be short for the Basque name Nayara, meaning "swallow."
Poppy. A punchy yet pretty little girl's name with character, this flower name has lots of cute variations — Popee, Popi, Poppie, Poppea.
Quinn. Another take on the last name trend (think comedian Colin Quinn), this powerful, gender-neutral name means "queen" in German and English.
Sia. This unique little girl's name is so powerful, the Australian singer goes by it alone. It could also be short for the Irish name Sianna ("God is gracious").
Vega. Popular in Scandinavia, this unique gender-neutral name means "falling star."
Vera. The designer Vera Wang commonly pops up as inspiration for this girl name. Meaning "true" or "faith" and short for Elvera and Veronica in in Latin and Slavic, Vera was actually among the SSA's top 100 in the 1920s.
Zinnia. This cousin to the sunflower has bright fuchsia, yellow, red and orange flowers as vibrant as your little girl.
Zosia. If you're a fan of the TV show Girls, you probably think of Zosia Mamet when you hear this baby name. It's also a close neighbor to the equally stunning Zósima, Greek for "vital, vigorous."
Zuri. Swahili for "beautiful," this is a gorgeous and unique baby girl name.
