Origin: Greek Meaning: fron what I could find, it's a Greek word that means "lightness", referring to a levity or fickleness of mind. I'm not sure if this has ever been used for an actual name, though there is a species of moth called Elaphria. If anyone has any more info on this name, let…

Mariposa made headlines as the maybe-baby name for Kylie Jenner. Now that she hasn't use it, I've got just one question: should you? A crossover nature name with a surprising spiritual meaning and nicknames galore, there's lots to love about this unexpected choice.

Vanessa is so, so beautiful. The name is 1, a literary invention which makes it mysterious, 2, the name of a species of butterfly which makes it lovable, and 3, is the name of an impact crater on the planet Venus making it feel other worldly and all the starry eyes. Now add a bunch of gorgeous and talented namesakes, and you've got a name bombshell.
