Here's the final installment of super-rare Dutch girl names. These names were used only once in the Netherlands last year, and I'll be posting my list of favorites from the boy list next.
Anneloïse
Antine
Bisou
Clelia — I went to elementary school with a girl called Clelia. Pronounced "clay-lee-ah"
Eloïne
Eylül — this is a Turkish name that means "September"
Fleurance
Isaloe
Jomi
Lèmoni — can't resist this
Lio
Lylwenn
Maéva
Marisanne
Mayreau
Motiënna
Nevine
Pippien
Romaïsa
Sephine
Suze-Roos — total crafty-hip vibe here
Truke
Violaine
Xanne-Lou
Yulanne
Zuske

This has been my most favorite part yet. I really liked Roseriet, Novavie, and Zoéline from before. This list has Fleurance, Isaloe, Mayreau and Romaïsa- all of which I knew the exact pronunciations for.
ReplyDeleteEdit: Meant to say I WISH I new the exact pronunciations for them! Especially Fleurance...
DeleteI love Anneloïse & Lèmoni. Violaine is also nice.

Sephine, Pippien and Bisou are my favourites from such a wonderful list.
