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 Edwin. 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. A name I like, though I dont know if it has been used in real life, is Ondine. It comes from the name of a mythological water nymph and is attractive but very unusual. It derives from a Latin word meaning wave. There is a story written in 1811 about a sea nymph who marries a mortal.
