What are your favorite girl names that start with the letter E?
E is my favorite girl initial and I was wanting to add to my list. Unusual is preferred since they are less likely to already be on there, but I am game for sharing classic favorites too like Elizabeth. Thank you! Current E girl name list for me: Evangeline (to the shock of no one)

So many good ones, but my favorites -Eve
Elara
Eris
Eden
Emory
Echo
Yay! Another lover of Echo!
Most of my favorites have been mentioned probably, but how about Elsinore? It's the castle in Hamlet, of course, but I've always thought it makes a very pretty name. You could also spell it Elsinor or Elsanor. It's like a combination of Elsa and Eleanor.

I love Elsiana and Estera!
I cant believe I forgot about Enya that is a pretty one too. Embeth is also another good celebrity name one. I always am happy to see Ember
Elm
Elmira
Elnora
Emmalynn
Emmeline
Estelle & Elise (love these for twins)
Elmas
I like Estelle and Elise for twins too
a great list. I too love Eva so much. I was surprised to see Eilidh in your list
a great list, Eliana makes me think of a princess in a children's story
Glad to see some appreciation for Émeraude! :) It should be more common in France - if Perle, Ambre and Jade charted, why not Émeraude?
Yesss definitely, it's much more pleasing than those other names imo. I'm not a fan of gem names but Émeraude sounds so elegant~
I could never rank mine it would take me entirely too long to pit some against the others. A great list. Why do you like Euphemia best?
I'm not sure, it just checks all my boxes. The Eu- sound is one of my favorites, it has personal significance, and it's charming and regal.
What first drew me in is the nickname Euphie though. It really softens the name. :)
Evangeline for me too! Joint with Eva.
I'm glad you love it too! It is what I want to name a daughter someday. Evangeline Violet with Eva for short
love Eleni and Elia
great list. Endellion always makes me think of dandelions
I love Edessa, Etherea and Enchantra! :) Such hidden gems.Eadwynn

Thank you! I can't remember for sure where I found Etherea and Enchantra, it may have been Nameberry but I cant say for sure. Edessa I definitely found on here perusing the submitted database a number of years ago. It definitely appeals to me. It feels unusual but elegant. Like a fairy princess to me.You have a great list too! My favorites are Evanna, Églantine, Evening, Elisaria, Émérentienne, Estrella, Ellavieve, Esperia, Everilda, Eunomia is beautiful, Etheldreda is so underappreciated on here. A lot of great finds in this list
I like Emily, Erica, Erin.
good classics, Emily always has a sweet image to me
My favourite right now is probably Edna. I also love Edwina, Eudora, and Eloise. I was fixated on Elisenda for a while, but it was just a phase.My husband loves Eileen, Èlia, and Ethel!
DH's family tree contains cousins named Eileen and Edna - round about 1900 I think.
I think it is because of my lingering traces of my childhood speech impediment but I can't find myself to like Edna because it was one of the words I couldn't say. I love Edwina, ELoise and Elia though
Eleanor, or Elinor
Eve, or Evelyn
Esme
Elizabeth, which I've used as a mn
Eloise
Enid (I know one whose nn is Dinnie)
Edith, though I'm fighting a bad association
All good classics. My niece is an Eloise. Bad associations are hard to fight. I love Carolina but the only girl I knew with it was an absolute bully in school
I think E is my favourite vowel for girls’ names! You’ve listed a lot of my favourites.Eliana
Esmeray
Evanthe
Evren (everyone on here seems to prefer this on a boy, but I prefer it on a girl)
Evelina
Elysia
Emerence
Everly
I likewise love Evanthe and Emerence. Evelina is pretty! I haven't considered Esmeray before
I love Elisabeth too, Eleanora is also a nice one. I'm not completely sure why but I'm not into Eleanor.
