More unusual Names

 A name that I've only seen in fiction is Edina.. but it is a variant of Edwina, which is a feminine form of Edwina.  

Another very rare name is Danae a Greek name... given to a girl ravished by Zeus in the form of a shower of gold, who gave birth to Perseus. 

There is also the name Candace or Candice which is the name of a queen of Ethiopia, mentioned in the Bible.   It is occasionally given.

Posy is a name which has been given as a childish form of Josephine but can also be the name of a bunch of flowers.
