Few monikers carry as much cool factor as space names for girls. Plucked from the heavens, these names have out-of-this-world associations for your kiddo to explore someday. Let’s rocket through some together.
Space-themed girl names often come from the stars, and with good reason. Who doesn’t see their little one as a guiding light? One of our all-time favorite star names for girls is Lyra. Lyra carries wisdom, beauty, and charisma as a constellation and a musical moniker. She isn’t very common, but we think she’d work great amongst today’s top names. Ara is another cute constellation pick who wears well on a precious baby girl, along with her friends Carina and Delta. If you’re looking for something bold, see Andromeda and Cassiopeia.
Cool space names for girls also come from moons around the universe. On Neptune, you’ll find Larissa, for instance. If you head to Jupiter, you’ll hit a jackpot of great moon names for girls, including Amalthea and the chic Thebe. There are many to discover on the planet Uranus, like Ariel, Cressida, and Bianca. Of course, the most popular moon name of all is Luna, a Latin lady with a sweet sound.
You can also look to planets around our solar system and beyond to find outer space names for girls. Venus is by far the most popular with parents, and with her association with superstar tennis player Venus Williams, she’s an incredible choice. Jupiter is sometimes used for baby girls, though she’s not as common. We still think she’s super cool, though. Don’t shy away from dwarf planets, either, as they have cute space names for girls amongst them, including Ceres and Eris.
In your quest for girl names related to space and stars, you can also look to astronauts for inspiration. These are certainly baby girl names inspired by space, but they’re not as obvious as Moon or Astra. Valentina Tereshkova was the first woman in space, for example. You could also use Sally, as in Sally Ride, Mae for Mae Jemison, or Ellen, in honor of Ellen Ochoa.
Space names for girls harbor fun and adventure that’ll be with your little one for life. We hope you find the right one for your precious daughter.
