Fresh feminines are names that are elegant, melodic and ethereal that feel contemporary and avant-garde, even if they are rooted in centuries of history. Flowing syllables are key here with an uplifting appeal. They are not as weighty or antique as Henrietta or Gwendolyn nor as class-defining as Camilla or Antigone.
