Orfia is a gorgeous girl's name of Italian origin. Derived from the name Orpheus, which comes from the expression orphne, meaning "the darkness of night" in Greek, it's the perfect choice for your mini mythology buff. As legend has it, Orpheus was a Thracian poet with a passion for music that swayed Hades, the lord of the underworld, into releasing his wife, Eurydice, from death. The stars may not have aligned for this lyre-playing legend, but a name like Orfia will inspire your little one to decide their own destiny.
