Nessa 2

So beautiful. It is rare that a name has such a beautiful meaning as miracle and also a lovely sound.

A very beautiful name for a little girl that came as a miracle to her parents.

I love this name and the meaning. It's quite beautiful. I love it so much. But I hate the name Vanessa. I know that if I name my daughter this when she says "I'm Nessa" everyone will be all "Oh Like Vanessa?", I do though love it for a character.

I agree, people will always think it is short for the over the top girly name Vanessa.

I like the name Nessa and the meaning of miracle is my favourite. I use the name Nessa-Rose for a character in a story and I've only just learned that there's a famous character in Wicked named Nessarose.

If I was to put any associations of the character from Wicked aside, I would think this is a very good name. And the meaning of miracle is fantastic (at least I think so). It suggests the color pink to me.

I think that this is a beautiful name for a child, especially if the meaning 'miracle' really affects you and your husband.
