      alternative. Chrisanta, Chrisantha, Chrissanta, Chrissantha, Chryssantha.

      CRISPINA. Latin, ‘curly- haired’. Unfortunately, everyone will hear this feminine form of Crispin as Christina.

      CRISTINA. Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and Romanian variation of CHRISTINA. One case where the streamlined version feels more exotic.

      

CRUZ. Spanish, ‘cross’. A sister for Concepciòn and Corazòn, although its masculine side was emphasised when the high profile David Beckhams chose it for their son. Crucita, Cruise.

      CRYSTAL. Gem name. Originally a male name, Crystal was hot in the 1980s along with shoulder pads and big hair, but retains none of the sparkle it once had. Christal, Christalle, Chrystalle, Chrystal-Lynn, Chrystel, Chrystle, Cristal, Cristalie, Cristalina, Cristalle, Cristel, Cristela, Cristelia, Cristella, Cristelle, Cristhie, Cristle, Crysta, Crystala, Crystale, Crystalee, Crystalin, Crystall, Crystalle, Crystaly, Crystel, Crystela, Crystelia, Crystelle, Crysthelle, Crystl, Crystle, Crystol, Crystole, Crystyl, Khristalle, Khrystle, Kristle, Krystal, Krystle. International: Criostal (Irish Gaelic), Chrystal (Irish), Christel, Christelle (French), Krystalle (German).

      

CUBA. Place name. Cuba Gooding Jr notwithstanding, this sounds better for girls.

      

CURRAN. Irish, ‘hero, champion’. Curry-flavoured Irish surname-y name that could work as well for girls as boys. Cura, Curin, Curina, Curinna, Curren, Currin, Curryn.

      

CURRY. Word name. Peppy choice. Currey, Curri, Currie, Kurri, Kurry.

      

CURTIS. French, ‘courteous, polite’. This familiar boys’ name could be considered as a fresh girls’ choice.

      CYANE. (SY-an) Greek, ‘bright blue enamel’. Mythological Sicilian nymph who lived in a pool and whose name is an intriguing twist on the colour name trend. Cyan.

      CYBELE. (si-BELL) Greek, ‘the mother of all gods’. This name of a Greek goddess of fertility, health and nature would undoubtedly be confused with Sybil. Cybel, Cybela, Cybil, Cybill, Cybille, Cyebele, Sibyl, Sybil.

      CYDNEY. Spelling variation of SYDNEY. Unnecessary complication. Cydne, Cydnee, Cydnei, Cydni, Cydnie, Cydny.

      CYMBELINE. Greek, ‘hollow’; Celtic, ‘sun lord’. Musical name that is the title of a Shakespeare play. Cymbaline.

      CYNARA. Greek, ‘thistly plant’. Poetic though thorny. Cinara, Zinara.

      CYNTHIA. Greek, ‘of the moon’. Attractive name – in classical mythology an alternate for Artemis or Diana – that was so overexposed in the middle of the twentieth century that few style-conscious parents would choose it today. Cia, Cinda, Cindee, Cindi, Cindra, Cindy, Cinnie, Cinny, Cinthia, Cyn, Cynda, Cyndee, Cyndi, Cyndia, Cyndie, Cyndra, Cyndy, Cyneria, Cynethia, Cynithia, Cynnie, Cynthy, Cynthea, Cynthiana, Cynthiann, Cynthie, Cynthria, Cynthy, Cynthya, Cyntia, Cyntria, Cythia, Cytia, Kynthija, Sindee, Sindi, Sindy, Sindya, Sinnie, Sinny, Synda, Syndee, Syndi, Syndy, Syntha, Synthee, Syntheea, Synthia, Synthie, Synthya. International: Cinzia (Italian), Cinta (Spanish), Cintia (Spanish, Portuguese), Kynthia (Greek).

      CYRA. (SEER-a) Persian, ‘sun’ or ‘throne’. Twist on all those Keiras, but not as attractive.

      CYRILLA. Latin, ‘lordly’. If you want something even more tightly laced than Priscilla. Cerelia, Cerella, Ciri, Cirilla, Cyrella, Cyrille, Siri, Sirilla, Syrilla. International: Cira (Spanish).

      CYTHEREA. Greek, ‘from the island of Cythera’. Home of Aphrodite, this name seems stuck in ancient Greece.

       D girls

      

DACEY. Irish, ‘from the south’. Delicate and lacy Irish name with real possibilities. Dacee, Dacei, Daci, Dacia, Dacie, Dacy, Daicee, Daici, Daicie, Daicy, Daycee, Daycie, Daycy.

      DACIA. Latin place name. Ancient place name – it was in Eastern Europe – as lacy as Dacey, but more substantial.

      DAEL. Dutch variation of СКАЧАТЬ
