I’d like to know what beautiful/ interesting/ uncommon/ common etc names you think sound fairy-like or magical and are useable as ‘real’ names. I’m stuck for fresh ideas…here’s a list I’ve cobbled together…can you add more to the list?
[name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] is a very fairy-like name to me…the meaning ‘from the forest/woods’ and also because of the book ‘[name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] and [name_m]Bruno[/name_m]’ by [name_m]Lewis[/name_m] [name_u]Carroll[/name_u].
[name_f]Faye[/name_f]/[name_f]Fay[/name_f] for obvious reasons
[name_f]My[/name_f] daughter has a gorgeous picture book about a fairy called Thistle
or:
[name_f]Elysia[/name_f]
Amora
Jenova
[name_f]Evanna[/name_f]
[name_f]Parisa[/name_f] (great meaning as well as sound)
[name_f]Vianna[/name_f]
[name_f]Selene[/name_f]
Madeli ([name_f]Madeline[/name_f], but with an ee sound instead of [name_f]Line[/name_f])
[name_u]Ever[/name_u]
[name_f]Bria[/name_f]
Briara
Eres
[name_f]Moriah[/name_f]
[name_f]Parisa[/name_f], [name_f]Fairuza[/name_f], Alissende, Evony, [name_f]Petula[/name_f], [name_u]Fable[/name_u], Sylvélie and [name_f]Naia[/name_f] are a few on my (very) long list that feel rather fairy/nymph-like to me.
Yes, I love the meaning of [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] but the name reminds me of [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] Plath too much… but I adore Thistle and [name_f]Faye[/name_f]/ [name_f]Fae[/name_f] too !!
And Avonlea, [name_f]Elysia[/name_f], Jenova, [name_f]Selene[/name_f], Madeli/ Madeleigh and [name_u]Ever[/name_u] are beautiful too !!
Thanx [name_f]Sunniva[/name_f] - Alissende, [name_f]Evony[/name_f], [name_f]Petula[/name_f], [name_u]Fable[/name_u] and [name_f]Naia[/name_f] are gorgeous !! xx

[name_f]Saffron[/name_f]

I think that’s it, but there might be more in the link in my signature.
I tend to think that plant/floral and virtue names remind me of fairies… word names in general actually…
Think: [name_u]Robin[/name_u], Mustardseed, Peaseblossom, Cobweb, Moth and [name_u]Puck[/name_u] who are all fairy servants in [name_m]Shakespeare[/name_m]'s A Midsummer [name_m]Night[/name_m]’s [name_u]Dream[/name_u].
Many of the florals I’d consider were already mentioned but I’d probably add some virtues and words like:
[name_f]Jubilee[/name_f]
[name_f]Temperance[/name_f]
[name_f]September[/name_f]
[name_f]Wednesday[/name_f]
etc.
