Choosing the name of the baby is one of the big decisions that future dads have to face. You can not always please the whole family when it comes to putting the name of the baby and you should always prioritize that it is a proper name for your girl and that it reinforces her personality.
In Dominican Republic they do not take risks with strange names or get carried away by fashion, but prefer traditional but authentic names for their girls. That's why in the list of frequent names for girls we find names that are very familiar to us, except one that is emblematic of the country, Altagracia.
Frequent names for girl in Dominican Republic
1. Altagracia. It is a name of unusual Latin origin outside of the Dominican Republic. However, in this country it is the most frequent name for girls and has a deep rooted. The beauty of this name lies in its musicality and has in its favor a long religious tradition.
2. Juana. The name is of Hebrew origin and is as frequent for a girl as her masculine Juan. It is an almost universal name, recognized and very popular all over the world, with a special force capable of reinforcing the personality of your girl.
3. María. This name is of Hebrew origin and also has an almost universal character. We are before the name of girl by antonomasia, so much in Dominican Republic as in the rest of the world and for that reason it can appear alone or combined with others in infinity of compound names.
4. Elizabeth. The name is of Hebrew origin although it is presented in its English variant. In the Dominican Republic, they prefer this version to their possible correspondences in Spanish, Isabel or Elisa, because it gives their girls a sophisticated and modern touch.
5. María Altagracia. The Hebrew origin of María joins the Latin origin of Altagracia in an extraordinary combination of the two most emblematic names of the Dominican Republic. The inevitable Mary does nothing but reinforce the delicacy of that ideal name that is Altagracia.
6. Mercedes. It is a name of Latin origin that has been transmitted to us through religious tradition. The name maintains all the freshness in spite of its use, being one of those names whose popularity stays invariable and other people's to the fashions.
7. Ramona. The name has a Germanic origin with a meaning that implies divine protection. Its popularity is based on the strength it gives off, being a strong name capable of providing a great personality.
8. Carmen. The Latin origin of this name and its meaning related to a song of life make Carmen one of the most appreciated girl names in the Hispanic world. Alone or combined with other names, its delicacy is perfect for your girl.
9. Santa. This name is of Latin origin with a long tradition but little used as a proper name. It is very characteristic of the Dominican Republic and we love it because it is original and distinguished. In addition, its meaning related to perfection and purity only increases its appeal.
10. Francisca. The name is of Germanic origin and is as popular as his masculine, Francisco. If it remains among the frequent names for girls it is because of its traditional flavor, but also because of that meaning that implies freedom.
