I really like place names for girls but not the usual suspects, like [name_u]Brooklyn[/name_u], [name_u]Brighton[/name_u], [name_f]India[/name_f].
I’d like to expand my girls place names list.
What are some of your favorites?
I like ancient cities. 
Any ideas would be much appreciated!
My favourite place names for girls are:
[name_f]Florence[/name_f]
[name_f]Vienna[/name_f]
[name_f]Georgia[/name_f]
[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]
[name_f]India[/name_f]
[name_f]Alexandria[/name_f]
[name_f]Olympia[/name_f]
If you’re looking for some ancient city names, you could try looking on Wikipedia! They have lots of lists containing ancient cities 
I’ve always liked this one: List of ancient Greek cities - Wikipedia
It has such gems as Alinda, Myrlea, Cyrene, Edessa & [name_f]Delphi[/name_f] (which are my favorites)
I like [name_f]Cypress[/name_f] for a girl, for me it represents [name_m]Cyprus[/name_m]. I also like nature names, so this is a two for one in my name world.
Other place names I like for girls, including [name_u]Brighton[/name_u]: [name_u]Holland[/name_u], [name_f]Alexandria[/name_f], [name_f]Venice[/name_f], [name_u]Paris[/name_u](popular though), [name_u]London[/name_u](still popular), [name_f]Ireland[/name_f], [name_u]Dallas[/name_u] (guilty pleasure), [name_u]Jericho[/name_u](I like this for a boy as well), Ashland, Providence, and [name_f]Olympia[/name_f].
My favourites would have to be:
[name_u]London[/name_u]
[name_f]Olympia[/name_f]
[name_f]Adelaide[/name_f]
[name_f]India[/name_f]
[name_f]Sahara[/name_f]
[name_u]Sierra[/name_u]
[name_f]France[/name_f]
[name_f]Ireland[/name_f]
[name_f]England[/name_f]
[name_m]Rome[/name_m]
[name_u]Aspen[/name_u]
[name_f]Florence[/name_f]
[name_u]Holland[/name_u]
I’m not generally a fan of places names but I’ve suddenly started to love [name_f]Italia[/name_f], it’s just beautiful to me 
Kinvara
[name_f]Delphi[/name_f]
[name_f]Odessa[/name_f]

Illyria
[name_f]Thera[/name_f]

If you’re open to more modern place names, here are a few more atypical favorites:

[name_u]Ashley[/name_u]/[name_f]Natalie[/name_f] (haha, there’s an [name_u]Ashley[/name_u] and a [name_f]Natalie[/name_f] in my state, which we’ve always found super cool, because I’m [name_u]Ashley[/name_u] and my little sister is [name_f]Natalie[/name_f]. It’s hardly the usual suspect, though!)
[name_f]Odessa[/name_f]
[name_f]Parisa[/name_f] (does this count? I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_f]Parisa[/name_f], but am pretty meh about just [name_u]Paris[/name_u])

@peachymum
I love the sound of [name_f]Italia[/name_f]! Didn’t know if it was okay to use without a drop of Italian in me or my husband!
@lumen
I had [name_f]Thessaly[/name_f] on my list, I took it off cause I was worried about kids prounouncing it. I like [name_f]Venezia[/name_f], is it wearable?
@knnames
I love [name_u]Vale[/name_u]! I’ve had as a middle name option!
@boyandgirl
Thanks!
@adelina_sophia
Thanks!
I have no Italian in me what’s so ever - fully born & bred English girl - but I have no problem using it at all, it’s to beautiful to pass up. I guess to me it’s no different than someone calling their child [name_f]China[/name_f] or [name_f]Ireland[/name_f] yet not having Irish/Chinese blood or ties.
