A strong name for a black baby girl

I've always liked Maia, Keisha and Dajia. They are all strong but still feminine and aren't that odd that the child will be teased. I believe they are all considered African American names.

my name is sharonda and I dislikeit very much. My comment is to stick with a common but simple name, please no ghetto names. And what is a "white" name? That was a really racist comment. A name does not make a person white, black, latino or asian. its the person attached to the name that makes it what it is... Embarassed

One of my friends names is Erzsibet. Its Hungarian, unusuall, and very pretty. We call her Erzsi for short. Its pronounced Ahjeebet or Ahjee. Another lady I used to work with was named Infini, which is derived from the Epiphany, or the coming of the wise men.

I think Havilah is a beautiful name. It is a Hebrew name which is found in the bible. In the bible it is referenced as a place and a male's name. It had such a beautiful ring to it, I gave my daughter that name . In fact, she has a mixed origin of names.

Haviliah
Means "stretch of sand" in Hebrew. In the Old Testament this is both a place name and a masculine personal name.

Marie
Latinate form of MARY. This was the name of several queens of Portugal.

what about Akinyi - it is a Luo tribal name (east africa ) which means a girl born in the morning. A girl born in the night would be Atieno, during the day Achieng (ah. Chi. eng- to pronounce),

or Afua (pronounced ah. fee. ah) which is Jamaican.

or how about Baraka which means luck or blessing in Swahili,

or some good Muslim or arabic names like Salimah, Nassim, Rehema or Laila

I lived in Africa for a couple of years and those are some of the names there (there were also some monica lewinskys and saddam husseins)
