One of baby’s cutest features you may admire is their beautiful locks of hair. If your new little one is blessed with gorgeous golden blonde hair that you simply adore, we have a name that you might like. Originating from Greek, the girl’s name Xanthia means “yellow,” “blond,” “blond-haired,” or “fair-haired.” Another variation of this name is Xanthe. For Greek mythology buffs, Xanthe was one of the Oceanids, a group of 3,000 goddess-nymphs who oversaw earth’s fresh waters. Xanthe was thought to either be a nymph of a muddy flowing stream or of the yellowed clouds of dawn and dusk. Like this goddess, little Xanthia’s pretty personality and stunning features are sure to be remembered by those around them.
