If you’ve got a Southern belle on the way, or if you just want to infuse a little country charm into your baby name– this list of country girl names is for you!
True, I’m from New England. But having lived in the south for four years during college, I’ve met my fair share of country girls. One thing they had in common is their regional pride. Whether they were glitzy pageant girls or rough-and-tough cowgirls, they all identified as Southern girls first.
If you’ve got country living pride, you’ll love these name choices for your little girl.

I named my 2nd daughter after her dad. That’s pretty southern. His name is Donnie Ray and I named her Dawni’Rae
Definitely sounds southern to me! Very cute!
I am not sure if this is southern or northern, but Tana. I have always loved that name
