It’s no doubt that your new baby is absolutely, positively, uniquely beyond beautiful. So, naturally, you need an appropriate name to match. While there is an endless amount of beautiful names out there, there are only some that, when translated into other languages or usages, actually mean “beautiful.” For one of the more literal options, there’s Jameela, which translates in Arabic to beautiful or lovely, and Bella/o, Italian for beautiful. Then, there’s also Mei-lin, which can be translated to mean “beautiful forest,” “beautiful jade” and “beautiful unicorn” in Chinese. You can also take a less literal approach with a name like Miya, which can be translated in Japanese to “shrine” or “palace” — two things that are meant to show extreme beauty and elegance. If you want to look for inspiration in Hollywood, look no further than actors Jameela Jamil and Jamie Lee Curtis (Jamie Lee is a gender neutral name with reportedly British, Hebrew and Irish origins that can be translated to “one who supplants the meadow” — a nod to nature’s beauty). No matter which route you choose to take, and which language or culture you want to honor with your child’s legacy, the bounty of inspiration is endless. Here is a list of 92 names that mean beautiful — or something related to the adjective.
