Here’s a baby name you won’t want to let go! Though now a personification of empowering self-acceptance, Elsa first made its mark as a feminine variation of the Hebrew name Elizabeth.

You’ll find many Elsas across Scandinavia, Germany, Italy, Portugal, and Spain, to name a few—proof of its world-renowned beauty. Plus, thanks to Disney’s Frozen, Elsa now exhibits the merits of embracing the self.
