Having a baby is one of the most beautiful gifts in the world, which is why some parents may feel inclined to give their children names that encompass pristine beauty. This is so common, in fact, that dozens of names mean “beautiful” in every language, many of which are popular in different corners of the world.
Both Alan, and its feminine version, Alana, are part of the US top 1,000 and have been for several decades. These names are of Irish origin meaning “handsome or cheerful.”
The French name Beau and its feminine version, Belle, mean “beautiful” and have also been part of the US top 1,000 for several decades. However, Belle peaked in popularity in the late 19th century and has become less and less common over the years, whereas the opposite can be said about the name Beau.
If you’re looking for names whose meanings aren’t as obvious as Beau and Belle, you may like the names Jamal, Callie, and Linda. Jamal is a popular boy name of Egyptian origin meaning “beauty.” And Callie is a Greek name meaning “beautiful” that has been picking up momentum in America and Europe since 2018.
Linda, on the other hand, is a Portuguese word meaning “pretty” that has been losing stamina since it peaked as the #1 name in America in the 1940s. Today, it is close to leaving the US top 1,000 for good, giving it more appeal to parents who are searching for uncommon names.
