Aarjawee means straightforwardness, honesty and sincerity. Abha (आभा) means light, radiance or splendour.

Rare girl names with a clear, simple meaning
Akriti means shape, form or a graceful appearance. Akshata means unbroken rice grains used in worship, and also unharmed or whole. Alena means light, torch or bright one. Alfa means the first or foremost, from the first letter of the Greek alphabet. Angira is the name of a Vedic sage, and also means fiery. Aayushka means of long life, full of life, and Aagnya means a command, order or permission. The main unique Nepali names collection shows how these sit beside more familiar choices.
Tips for parents
- Check the meaning first, since a rare name should still be one you can explain simply when your child asks about it.
- Watch for variant spellings such as Akriti and Akrity, or Agya and Aagnya. Pick one form and stay with it.
- Say the name with your surname and with a middle name, so a rare first name still has a familiar rhythm around it.
- Compare your favourite with names you already know using how rare is my name, then share the shortlist with family.
