Fierce girl names won’t sit down in the face of strife. These bold beauties are ready to take on the challenge and come out ahead. From popular picks to rare renegades, we’ve covered some of our standout picks.
Some of today’s most popular girl names are surprisingly fierce in meaning, including Sophia. While her meaning of “wisdom” isn’t super powerful on the surface, quick wit is more powerful than any sword. The stately Victoria also has a hidden strong meaning of “victory.” She’s often seen as a timeless treasure suitable for afternoon tea, but don’t let that fool you. She’s one fierce queen! Her opposite would be Ryder if you prefer something a little rowdier. Meaning “mounted warrior,” she’s growing in popularity with parents for both boys and girls.
Other options are rare like Murphy. This “descendent of the sea warrior” has Irish roots and falls into the unisex category. Rooney is another fierce female, meaning “descendent of the champion.” She’s quite rare but makes a great alternative to the mega-popular Riley. For a more formal feel, see Leona, meaning “lion.” This Latin lady is mature in sound and courageous, but you can soften her with nicknames like Lee and Leoni. Get to know more rare, fierce faces with Ursa, Minka, and Morrigan.
Amazing meanings and fierce names for girls go hand-in-hand. Ariel‘s “lion of God” will forever be one of our all-time favorites. Also linked to The Little Mermaid, this Hebrew name also has super nickname potential, including Ari and Elle. Willa is another excellent choice, meaning “will helmet” or “protection.” She’s vintage in sound, suiting one of today’s top trends, but she’s not very common yet. Discover more fierce meanings with Samara, Payden, and Lula.
Fierce finds may get their strength from associations like Eleanor. Connected to first lady, activist, and diplomat Eleanor Roosevelt, this vintage name is once again gaining steam with parents. She’s a versatile pick, too, as she can be shortened to Elle, Ella, or Nora. Another option is Maya, a sweetheart linked to poet and Civil Rights activist Maya Angelou. Never underestimate the power of words, as this woman could move mountains with them! You could also try a name tied to a mythological goddess like Athena or Freya. See Malala, Harriet, and Frida for more fierce girl names with epic associations.
Check out our complete list of more fierce girl names to meet more monikers with might.
