Can anyone suggest a name that means Miracle or Blessing?

nadiyahl · August 2009

We are planning to adopt a baby girl. We want her name to mean exactly what she will be- a blessing/miracle. Any suggestions?

Blithe is similar (joyous) and I know a girl with that name. (I think she spells it with a y though...)

Felicity (happiness)

They're not exactly the same - but the only "names" i can think of with similar meanings.

Congratulations on the adoption!!

Not exactly the same, but Gwen/Gwyneth means blessed. Eliana and Liana mean god has answered.

Congratulations!

Mirari (Portugese) and Nesiah (Hebrew) both mean "miracle." Keiko (Japanese) means "blessing." These are the only names I could find with those meanings. Some baby name sites have an advanced search where you can search by meaning.

The Welsh name Gwen/Gwynne means "fair, blessed."

Also: Winnifred, which means "blessed peace" and one of my favorites, Beatrix, which means "voyager through life," but is thought to have been altered from another name to incorporate the Latin 'beatus' (or blessed).

Milagro means miracle in Spanish and is an actual name.
