Hispanic Girl Names

Hey guys! So my entire family is Cuban some of my grandparents struggle with [name_f]English[/name_f] names! This all obviously hypothetical as I’m 19 and single, plus who knows who I’ll marry. But, I have a hard time finding Hispanic girl names that I like since I live in a huge Hispanic community and they seem so basic to me. I’d love to get some recommendations on some Hispanic girl names!

Some Hispanic boy names I like: [name_m]Diego[/name_m], [name_m]Rafael[/name_m], [name_m]Santiago[/name_m], & [name_m]Andres[/name_m]

Hispanic girl names I like: [name_f]Josefina[/name_f], [name_f]Daniella[/name_f] (maybe not traditionally Hispanic but definitely where I live)

Are you looking for Hispanic names specifically, or names that would be easy for your Cuban grandparents to pronounce? Because there’s quite a big difference! There are many names that aren’t Hispanic but that are easy for Spanish speakers to pronounce.* For example: [name_f]Anna[/name_f], [name_f]Annika[/name_f], [name_f]Ariana[/name_f], [name_f]Adela[/name_f], [name_f]Aviva[/name_f], [name_f]Bianca[/name_f], [name_f]Damara[/name_f], [name_f]Eleonora[/name_f], [name_f]Etta[/name_f], [name_f]Emilia[/name_f], [name_f]Emiliana[/name_f], [name_f]Evelina[/name_f], [name_f]Fiona[/name_f], [name_f]Isadora[/name_f], [name_f]Liora[/name_f], [name_f]Lara[/name_f], [name_f]Lavinia[/name_f], [name_f]Lilia[/name_f], [name_f]Lina[/name_f], [name_f]Mattea[/name_f], [name_f]Mira[/name_f], [name_f]Milena[/name_f], [name_f]Nadia[/name_f], Ostara, [name_f]Octavia[/name_f], [name_f]Pippa[/name_f], [name_f]Petra[/name_f], [name_f]Pandora[/name_f], [name_f]Paloma[/name_f], [name_f]Runa[/name_f], [name_f]Tessa[/name_f], [name_f]Talia[/name_f], [name_f]Zara[/name_f].
[name_f]Rosalba[/name_f], [name_f]Rosalia[/name_f], [name_f]Alma[/name_f], [name_f]Valentina[/name_f] and [name_u]Vida[/name_u] are my favourite Hispanic names. (: They’re gorgeous! Also [name_f]Silvia[/name_f], [name_f]Liliana[/name_f] and [name_f]Estrella[/name_f]!
*(sorry if I got any of these wrong and they’re hard to pronounce, I’m just assuming!)

I’ve taught many Hispanic/Latinx students over the decades. The name choices have become pretty dazzling and diverse, and often not necessarily of their culture.

Here are the most frequently used that I’ve noticed:

Ademir, [name_m]Antonio[/name_m], [name_m]Gerardo[/name_m], [name_m]Carlos[/name_m], [name_m]Yair[/name_m], [name_m]Jorge[/name_m], [name_m]Lalo[/name_m], [name_m]Eduardo[/name_m], [name_u]Noe[/name_u], [name_m]Arturo[/name_m], [name_m]Luis[/name_m], [name_m]Naftali[/name_m] (sp?)
Citalili, [name_f]Nayeli[/name_f], [name_f]Noemi[/name_f], Areceli, [name_f]Gladys[/name_f], [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u], [name_f]Yamileth[/name_f], [name_f]Concetta[/name_f], [name_f]Consuelo[/name_f], [name_f]Fatima[/name_f], [name_f]Farah[/name_f]

As I said, some of these are not Hispanic names, but the Latin culture where I live favors these. Not sure about your area.
