When you think of baby names that start with “E,” popular names that have Biblical origins like Elizabeth or Ezra may come to mind. But there are also edgier and more unique “E” girl names to choose from as well — which isn’t to say a traditional name that may run in the family isn’t an equally perfect choice. After all, choosing your newborn’s name is not necessarily about which “E” names are trending or popular in 2022, but rather which “E” girl name rolls off your tongue when you look into her eyes for the first time.
The letter “E” in itself is the most frequently used letter in English vocabulary, at a 11.16 percent frequency, which is higher than “the letter A.” While the letter “E” may be the most used letter in the English language, some of these meaningful “E” baby names are less traditional and more quirky. You’ll still be able to find classic “E” girl names in this list, but you may also be surprised to learn of less popular names you didn’t know existed until now. And those electric names (including but not limited to “Electra”) may just be the most exquisite baby girl name for your daughter.
