I really like the name Bliss for a girl, and I actually don't have many favorite girl names.

I realize that most people are probably like absolutely not..but does anyone else like it?

There was a girl at my high school with the name and for her senior picture she dressed up like audrey hepburn and just generally seemed like a cool person. that's why i like it so much, i think. you know how people can affect the names you like, either good or bad? that happens with me a lot.

anyways, i think i'd use it more for a middle name though.

here are some other names i got going through my old yearbooks..i don't necessarily like all of these, but they're unique. these are ALL girl names.


Summer Joy
Joelle
Natanya
Piper
Saleha (SAHL-UH-HA) [i always loved this name...she was also very cool, so again that helped :)]
Sylvana (SIL-VON-UH)
Koby
Sarianna Alyssabeth
Phoenix
Harleigh (daughter of Lorna Landvik)
Martine
Zana
Alessandra
Mirella (friend of mine, Swiss exchange student)
Marielle (her parents were from France)
Sina (SIGN-UH)[another friend of mine...I absolutely loved this name again cus she's so cool. She hates it though]

I LOVE BLISS! I'm going to add it to my list.

Martine, Zana, Marielle are also nice.

My favorite is Mirella.

Bliss reminds me of Bless, which is "bye" in Icelandic. I like Bless, but I don't think I'd ever use it.

I've always liked the name Bliss, especially as a middle. Same with Blythe, which has a similar meaning, I believe.

I really like Joelle. And Marielle. And Mirella (or Mirelle). There's a pattern in there somewhere! Haha.

i knew a girl named bliss. i bought a car off of her many moons ago and she completely screwed me over. i thought it was a really nice name until that, so yea, bad association.

i like summer and piper. piper only recently dropped off my favorite girls list.

I think Bliss makes a lovely middle name but I don't like it as a first name.

Bliss is way too much as a first name for me. I think it'd be okay as a mn. It's very hippyish.

Summer Joy - Summer is nice, but Summer Joy is so over the top
Joelle - nms
Natanya - pretty!
Piper - cute for a five year old... that's about it
Saleha - doesn't roll off the tongue very well, I don't like it
Sylvana - nms but its okay
Koby - BOYS NAME. HATE IT.
Sarianna Alyssabeth - wow thats a mouthful. Sarianna is okay, Alyssabeth is pretty bad
Phoenix - hate it, I live in AZ, can't imagine someone NAMED Phoenix
Harleigh - Wow like 8 trends in one. Not a name! Hate it
Martine - nms but okay
Zana - don't like it
Alessandra - pretty
Mirella - very pretty!
Marielle - love it!
Sina - eh its okay

Summer Joy - Wanted to name a child Summer Joy forEVER and then I married a city-slicker. He hates it.
Joelle - Hispanic Joel is pronounces Joelle, so I think it sounds like a guy's name.
Natanya - NMS. I like natalia better.
Piper - Haha this was going to be my husband's name until his dad stepped in with Christopher!
Saleha - Don't like it. I like Selena though.
Sylvana - Sounds very russian figure-skater-esque. Don't like.
Koby - Boy's name!!!!
Sarianna Alyssabeth - Sarianna could grow on me. Not Alyssabeth, with Elizabeth such a special family name for me.
Phoenix - Love it, always liked city names though.
Harleigh - Yuck-o.
Martine - Way too french.
Zana - Ew. Sounds like for a 100 year olf foreign woman.
Alessandra - Pretty.
Mirella - pretty.
Marielle - love it Mars as a nn!
Sina - Ew I thought of a bunch of gross words lol.

I read in an article about a girl named Bliss, her elder siblings had been born with a genetic problem but she was healthy. So her parents thought it suited.
Probably wouldn't use it myself, but can see the appeal.

I like ...
Summer Joy (also the name of Joaquin Phoenix's youngest sister)
Alessandra
Mirella
Marielle

I've always liked Bliss, and although I usually hate alternative spellings I think if I used it I would spell it Blyss... just to give it a little distance from the everyday word.
