I have wanted to name a little girl Dagny for so many years now. Finally, I am pregnant and having a little girl.

I cannot come up with any middle names that sound perfect to me though. I don't want a common name. Dagny Elizabeth is pretty but Elizabeth is so popular and it is meaningless to me.

I would love a name that has meaning. I like words for names and unusual names but I would also like it to sound pretty. I have considered several Indian words and several Japanese words but none have struck me as "the one."

If it helps, I love literature and got Dagny's name from a book. I am a feminist and a vegetarian. Compassion and strong women in history or literature are some of the things I am trying to keep in mind when looking for names.

Any suggestions?

My first suggestion is my favorite name. It means she who will not flee, inescapable, loyal, depending on where you look. There are two different pns -

Adrasteia

(pn ad ra STAY a)

or

Adrastea

(pn ah drah STAY ah or AD rah STEE ah)
